Bridge the World

Wroclaw is a city with many bridges.

Over the Odra,
fibers of steel, stone and iron crossed together
create a path for human and cars.

Wroclaw is a city with a long history.
Over the centuries it has been part of Poland, Bohemia,
Austria, Prussia, and Germany.
The German past is clear from its architecture,
from the impressive buildings that characterize the center of the city.

Wroclaw is the city where I finally arrived
walking on my "Bridge".

It was in November, 17th of November,
cold air and snow welcomed me in Poland.
I didn't have any idea before coming here,
I didn't want to have any idea about Poland.
I tried to be open, to watch, listen, breath,
slowly trying to understand this land.

I've been trying to catch the soul of this people,
that will host me for 6 months.

But it's still difficult for me to penetrate its shell.

Now the snow is still here,
it has been a cold winter allover the Europe,
and also here polar cold didn't miss the chance to say "hello".

But the weather is improving,
so it's time to "explore" a bit more the surroundings.

I'll keep you posted.
