A City of Land, Water and Wind (and they call it Bora)

A City of Land, Water and Wind (and they call it Bora)
Palace of the Region "Friuli Venezia Giulia" in the city's Main Place (Piazza dell'Unità d'Italia).

This is Trieste, at the edge of Italy. A city and the country's end, where the trains proceed no more, but yet part of the continent.

The Habsburg's Eperore fines jewel, and only deep-water port. Today, the most precious prize of Chinese logistic giants, rightfully seen in Trieste, as it is the Gateway to the European Market. Logistically speaking, it's much better than Antwerp itself.

I came back to the city after my years-long experience at the Teaching Unit of the Tax Administration. The faces I was familiar with are no more, but the city's beauty is the same.

The occasion of my visit was important, Dario Stevanato adn I tried to revamp an old tradition: the mid-term EATLP meetings.

Did we succeed? I guess so, and in any case, it has been a great day.
