Montorsaio, Tuscany, a very small village where 150 nativity scenes have been set up, at the windows, at the doors and in the squares. They were really good, it was a job well done and nice to see
@Simonewanderlust
Hello, here I am making noise! Yesterday afternoon I was in this medieval village, Pitigliano, in my Tuscany. It was built on a tuff spur and is very impressive. In the second image you can see the ancient Roman aqueduct, still well preserved!
@Simonewanderlust
Hi friends, I just got home from day 31, my new year out with friends is over. The balance was positive, a big dinner on the 31st, three short excursions on day 1 and the last one today. Then the last lunch with friends, where I took this fantastic dish of pasta, cheese and pepper served in a cheese basket (also to eat !!!) I assure you that it was delicious!
@Simonewanderlust
On my way home yesterday I saw in the sky, in the clouds, this balloon in the distance and despite being in the car I managed to capture it. Too bad she was very far away, otherwise a good photo would have come!
@Simonewanderlust
In Nosy Be, an islet north of Madagascar, there are many wildlife parks. One of these has giant tortoises as its absolute protagonists. They are incredible, we could ride them! I had a lot of fun observing and photographing them! These shots date back to August 2016
@Simonewanderlust
Good morning friends. On the first day of the year I took another excursion that I was missing: the Mulino waterfalls! They are natural spas where people relax in very hot water full of minerals that are good for the skin and body. The color of the water is spectacular and the pools are photographed every day and considered a pearl of Tuscany
@Simonewanderlust
Noise! These are the last photos of my summer visit to Slovenia. The first photo is a panoramic tower, from the top of which you can observe a magnificent view over the vineyards and the villages (photo 2). The last is a typical dinner, the cevapcici with potatoes, vegetables and pepper sauce, a real treat!
@Simonewanderlust
Good morning and happy first #Splashot of 2022. In recent days I was in a medieval village in Tuscany and I found several ideas for future works, including this lamp!
@Simonewanderlust
Montecarlo is the capital city-state of the small Principality of Monaco, located in the south of France on the Mediterranean Sea. It is a very rich city, many VIPs live or have residence here. The first image is a glimpse of the skyline, the second the Prince's residence. I was there in April 2005 to celebrate a friend's birthday!
@Simonewanderlust
Lugano, Switzerland. It is a small and welcoming town on the shores of the lake of the same name. It is surrounded by high mountains, from which you can enjoy interesting views. I stopped here in 2010 during an on the road in several states of central Europe
@Simonewanderlust
The fantastic castle of the Morì, built around the year 1000, is a ruined fortress located near Sinatra, Portugal, where I was on vacation with friends in 2004. It is located on a hill from which you have a view to the ocean. very fun to walk on the ramparts that are lost even in a small forest and the views over the whole surrounding area are remarkable!
@Simonewanderlust
Kawa Ljen is a volcano on the island of Java, Indonesia, which I had the pleasure of visiting in 2018.It starts around midnight and a hard trek descends into the crater, where at night you can see blue flames due to the outflow of sulfur . I'm going to show you this show soon, even though there wasn't much activity in those days. The photos were taken once I went up to the edge of the crater, where the sunrise is magical, over the entire crater and the lake on the bottom.
@Simonewanderlust
It's the first #caturday of the year !!. This beautiful cat practically lives in my friend Alessandra's house, it is not hers but of the neighbor's, but very often it is on her property and even at home :) it probably got along well with the other cats and for sure receives good food and attention!
@Simonewanderlust
Today sun, clear skies and pleasant temperatures. I wasted no time and went for a walk around my city. Florence always gives emotions, seeing thousands of entranced tourists around the Duomo gives me great pride. And actually this huge, elegant and eternal structure can only give a sense of beauty
@Simonewanderlust
Good noise and happy Sunday. Today 3 old shots from the vacation in Crete, Greece 2008 here we were in the nightlife area of Matala called Akouna Matata. It was a holiday dedicated to the sea and fun together with 8 other friends
@Simonewanderlust
Have a good start to the week Noise! In June I was in an area of my Tuscany where the landscapes are fairytale. This famous place is called "I triboli". They are 2 groups of cypresses that stand out in immense fields of wheat, and the effect they give is remarkable. I waited until there was no one in front of them to take these photos and make them so pristine!
@Simonewanderlust
I'm trying to learn to take some street photos. These two I shot in Harar, ETHIOPIA in December 2018. It was the first trip in which I spent time looking for people's faces and I must say that there were many ideas and something came to me well. What do you think friends? Do you like this kind of photos?
@Simonewanderlust
Predjama Castle is wedged into a single block of rock. It was considered impregnable because the owner had built long tunnels and so he could go out undisturbed and refuel, and then return. The interior is a bit bare but you can admire the 4 levels on which it is built. It is located in the central part of Slovenia and I visited it at Easter 2016!
@Simonewanderlust
In these days I finally came across a beautiful sunset. While traveling in my car I noticed that these pylons formed a nice silhouette between some interesting colors, also creating a nice diagonal with the cables. I hope you like it too. Good evening everybody
@Simonewanderlust
Good morning and happy #Splashot. I brought out the flowers of the hops, a plant that I really like. It is grown in rows and requires a lot of attention. The adult plants reach up to 2 meters in height and the fruits are mainly used in the processing of beer .. It is precisely the hops that give the bitter and tasty taste to the beer, and I have tasted many, with different varieties and even mixes
@Simonewanderlust
In the last few days I went along the river that flows next to my house and made the first attempts at macro photos with my Canon 650 d reflex. I still have to learn a lot but as a start let's say I'm satisfied. Good evening everyone, soon I'll go to bed, don't make too much noise, otherwise I'll wake up :) :)
@Simonewanderlust
Big Sur! The coast south of San Francisco is gorgeous! Traveling by car you will encounter wonderful views of the Pacific Ocean and many stops are a must. The photos date back to 2013, when I took my first trip with "Adventures in the world"
@Simonewanderlust
Tonight I'm talking about this bench: as you can see it is divided into 4 colors: they represent the 4 districts into which my city, Florence, is divided. Each neighborhood has its own symbol and color and the event par excellence in which the neighborhoods compete is the hard historical football, a primitive football that ends on patron's day with the final that takes place in a historic square of the city. Soon I will also show you the individual benches, scattered around…
@Simonewanderlust
Cartagena de Indians, Colombia is arguably the most beautiful city I have visited in all of South America. The whole center is enclosed within thick walls and the houses are all colorful, with many flowers and wooden half-timbered balconies. The trip dates back to February 2002
@Simonewanderlust
Good weekend everyone! Sometimes I am amazed by the creativity that people can have: from a simple can of beer this model car was created and with the bottle caps, the wheels, which rotate perfectly. I bought this souvenir in Madagascar, also because I had drunk some cans of this beer, THB (three horse beer) and I immediately recognized it. Do you like this art?
@Simonewanderlust
Happy #caturday This is Deena, the newcomer to my friend's house, she is very small she and she just wants to play! She has a nose that resembles a hyena but is actually very
@Simonewanderlust
I wish everyone a sparkling and loud Saturday! Browsing through my gallery I found these photos of a Saturday in September, 2018, which I spent with my friend at a pepper festival .. There were all kinds and colors, we really enjoyed. Which of you like spicy?
@Simonewanderlust
Bakhtapur, Nepal is an ancient city located in the Kathmandu Valley and is a city of many historical sites. Unfortunately it was hit hard by an earthquake in 2015 and many buildings were damaged here you can see the Krishna temple and the golden gate. Dicember/January 2017/18
@Simonewanderlust
I will often tell you about my 2 euro coin collection. Today I show you, in order, the 2 colored euro of Cyprus 2020 which represent the 30 years of the institute of neurology and genetics and the 2 colored euro of Estonia 2020 which commemorates the 200 years since the discovery of Antarctica. I love my complete collection, also because I have learned a lot of things.
@Simonewanderlust
Punta Arenas is the southernmost city in the world (if you don't consider Ushuaia village). It is located in Patagonia Chilena and is a city that has remained in my heart: sleepy, peaceful, quiet and green, but also full of life and fun at night. It is one of those places where, when I arrived, a spark immediately went off. The trip to Chile is in December 2004.
@Simonewanderlust
Venice! A city known all over the world. It has a unique charm, the canals, the gondolas, the bridges and its splendid architecture. This is the last time I was there, in May 2017, it was a wonderful 2 days with my traveling friends. I hope to be back soon because the emotions are always strong. Good evening everybody!
@Simonewanderlust
Goodmorning everyone! I just finished my night shift at work, and as soon as I got out I noticed the moon, very large and clear. I captured it with my smartphone using x30 zoom and the photo came out acceptable. Don't you find the moon magical? P. S.: don't make too much noise that now I'm going to bed :) :)
@Simonewanderlust
Ephesus, Turkey. The ruins of the ancient city are located on the shore of the Mediterranean Sea and it was an important stopover in the trade routes between Europe and Asia. In the photos you can see in the order the famous library of Celsus, the street of Cureti and the Odeon. I visited this wonderful site in August 2002 with 4 friends.
@Simonewanderlust
Happy Wednesday and happy #Splashot. Do you like geckos? I love these little reptiles, during the summer I observe them especially in the evening, when they come out of their burrows, and hungry they rush on anything that moves. My favorite thing is their webbed limbs !!
@Simonewanderlust
Last summer I went back to Slovenia for a few days and visited many places: one of them was the Charterhouse of Seitz. It is a former Carthusian monastery, located in a remote valley of the Styria region, and is well preserved, considering that it was built around 1,100. All the structures are very particular and beautiful to observe
@Simonewanderlust
Good morning noise family! Today I show you a glimpse of XIAN, a large city of 12 million inhabitants located in central China, where I was in August 2019.The first photo was taken on the mighty city walls, the second is the magnificent bell tower at night, the third a place in the lively Muslim quarter.
@Simonewanderlust
When I travel I always like to take something, so now I have many objects that always give me good memories: in the first image there are various things, cigarettes from Russia, lighter from Serbia, matches from Slovenia, a chip and a Luxor card. Las Vegas and some stones. In the second, the caps of beers from Myanmar, Nepal and Ethiopia.
@Simonewanderlust
Have you ever been for an aperitif or a drink on a plane? Yes, just outside Charleroi, Belgium, there is a parking lot where instead of cars there is a disused plane. And inside there is a nice bar complete with a hostess who prepares excellent drinks. I had a lot of fun with my friends doing this thing. It was in August 2012. Happy Friday everyone!
@Simonewanderlust
Sequoia national park, is the park in California, USA, where there are the largest trees in the world. In the first photo, the little one you see is me, next to the largest tree on the planet, General Sherman, as he is called. It is very nice to walk in the park and see these old giants still healthy almost everywhere!
@Simonewanderlust
Happy #caturday everyone !! The questions I ask myself are 2: how did he get up there and above all .. For what reason ??? :) :) :) Sometimes Cats do incomprehensible things !!
@Simonewanderlust
Happy Saturday everyone. Scrolling through the gallery I found this photo. It's a gorgeous sunrise that I shot from my workplace at the end of a night shift. Sometimes taking turns gives satisfaction, we see the arrival of the new day and sometimes it can be with these colors
@Simonewanderlust
Chauk htat gyi is a famous temple in Yangoon, Myanmar where there is a huge 70m reclining Buddha. It is perfectly preserved, colorful and bright. Her eyes are glass and her crown is encrusted with diamonds. At his feet there is a small altar with engraved prayers. It is a must for anyone visiting Yangoon, where I was in October 2014
@Simonewanderlust
Good start to the week everyone. Today I still show you colored coins, the first issued in 2004. The first depicts the discus thrower of Myron and the Athens 2004 Olympics, obviously issued by Greece. The second commemorates the 50th anniversary of the founding of FAO, the world food program and issued by Italy.
@Simonewanderlust

@Simonewanderlust
The Plitvice Nature Park in Croatia offers a unique spectacle. 16 lakes in succession, created by the confluence of 2 rivers, can be visited by well-arranged walkways in the dense wood that surrounds them. The water is amazingly colored, full of fish and the waterfalls are also exceptional. Croazia 2001
@Simonewanderlust
Good evening noisy friends! These 3 shots date back to June, where I took a beautiful tour of the Val d 'Orcia, in central Tuscany. The wheat fields were all yellow and the effect on the eye was amazing! I'll be back in April, when it will be all green, and even then I think the views will be top
@Simonewanderlust
Happy #Splashot everyone! This incredibly long and straight road took me from the ghost town of Karanaq to the spring of water in the oasis of Garmeh. In IRAN there are roads that seem to never curve and never end, I had a lot of fun in the car. The photo dates back to the 2016 Christmas period
@Simonewanderlust
My first time in Brussels, the capital of Belgium and the European Union. As soon as we arrived we stopped at the Hal gate, one of the old gateways to the city, then we visited the pleasant neighborhood of Gran Sablon and finally stopped at a brasserie to taste one of the famous beers. The photos date back to August 2009
@Simonewanderlust
Peru 1996, Machu Picchu. The mysterious archaeological site, a UNESCO heritage site, can be reached by cogwheel train from Cuzco through an ups and downs in the sacred valley, until arriving at the Aguas Caliente station. From there a bus takes travelers to the entrance, from which, behind a rock, the whole site appears in its beauty. It is assumed that the city was built around 1400 by the Incas and was subsequently abandoned until its discovery in 1911 by an archaeologist.
@Simonewanderlust
Good evening friends. The photos I show you were taken in Rome, the Eternal City, where I met in October 2019 with my travel companions in China. We toured the whole city, you can see a glimpse of the Colosseum, the Trevi fountain where there was a lot of people, and the Trastevere nightlife district. It was a great weekend!
@Simonewanderlust
Hello, it's Friday, so let's make a lot of noise! Do you like small shot glasses? I love them and have several. The first, the most beautiful I have, I got in Shiraz, Iran, and has the usual colors of a famous mosque with stained glass windows that are reflected throughout the interior. The second one I got in Kathmandu, and there are the classic eyes of the Buddha
@Simonewanderlust
Good weekend everyone! 3 Photos of a magnificent and mystical region, Tigray, Ethiopia! In this area there are dozens of churches, some difficult to reach, as they are carved into the rock of imposing cliffs. Inside there are magnificent paintings and the atmosphere during the celebrations is suggestive. I visited this area in January 2019 and I consider it one of the most difficult and extraordinary trips I have done!
@Simonewanderlust
Juary was a very beautiful and super good cat. Unfortunately a bad illness took him away that he was still very young but luckily I took many photos, so I can still show him! Have a nice weekend and above all a good #caturday
@Simonewanderlust
Moscow, Russia 2005. in the first image you can see the colorful church of St. George, in the second a detail of Ulica Arbat, a pedestrian street while in the last, taken inside the walls of the Kremlin, the bell tower of Ivan the Great is in the foreground.
@Simonewanderlust
Kropa is a small village located in the north of Slovenia. It is an ancient center of manual forging of iron and still you can visit both the museum and the foundry, one of the oldest in Europe. Slovenia 2017
@Simonewanderlust
Tonight, to end the weekend well, pizza with friends. Very good! I made a whole pizza with salami and gorgonzola cheese, then we took a slice of a delicacy each: mozzarella, mortadella and pistachio cream!
@Simonewanderlust
Goodmorning everyone. For my #Mondaycoins today I show you the latest arrival, on Friday: the plasticized and magnetic paper package that contains the 2 euro commemorative coin card "the heroes of the pandemic" which depicts doctors and nurses engaged in the fight against covid. It is very rare, the circulation is only 60,000 pieces and it will be almost impossible to find it in circulation. The cost of the whole folder is 100 dollars, I spent a lot but it was worth it!
@Simonewanderlust
Namibia, August 2015, wild life is the absolute master of the territory. In the 3 images there are animals that don't exist in my house, so it was a great thrill to see something new. I was in the wonderful Etosha park, and in order I photographed an oryx, then a Gnu and finally a springbok drinking in a puddle. Pure magic !!
