One Hundred Years Later in Florence

After finding my roots in the tiny fishing village of Lacco Ameno, Ischia, I became a dual citizen and was beckoned to live in the country that my family had to abandon in 1904. They would never live to know that their dream would be fulfilled through their children. They would never live to know that a century and three generations later, the circle would be completed, returning one of their children back, to love as they never could, the land that was once theirs.

Over the Rainbow in Florence

I knew before I even finished writing my last blog post that nothing in the world could ever draw me away from Florence. Neither a big job, fortune, recognition......nothing. But I had to explore the opportunity, if only to revel in the knowledge that I do have choices.

For a brief moment in time, I revisited a part of my life that made me what I am. That was good for then. But this is now. This is where life was bringing me all along.

While exploring the opportunity at least in theory, I took photos of some of the events and concerts that I attended during the last week, and created this video, which expresses my joy of living in Florence.
