Looking back on an amazing day spent exploring these ancient Mayan ruins dating as far back as A.D. 564 with some inscriptions, it’s heyday being around 1200-1521 A.D.

Bergamo – Citta Alta

This historic Lombard town at the base of the Bergamo Foothills, but raising above Bergamo’s Citta Bassa,  was the highlight of my time in northern Italy.  Though we spent just the one evening and night,  this town’s charm will always hold a special place in my heart.

Finding Your Vision

“Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.” #carljung
