STEPS IN ISRAEL. 2006
STEPS IN ISRAEL. 2006
Live travel write an archeology of the landscape and the soul . As a fragile ark of paper, aware of its fragility and precariousness of the writer descended into the depths of reality , to read signs hidden in other signs, to collect more lives and stories as possible and save them from the river of time and oblivion. Live immersed in the present in the suspension that occurs when we abandon ourselves to his slight slide ... like an open bottle under water and filled with the flow of things said Goethe traveling in Italy .A trip lived in this way places become milestones together and abodes of life's journey. Whether they are fleeting stops or roots, however, induce you to feel at home in the world

WITHOUT WORDS
Ein Bokek è una rinomata (?) resort Israelite. The hotels are very expensive and being Saturday (the Jewish festival) are complete . The Jews more affluent spend their weekends here,practically closed to the hotel, because not only do not enter into the sea but even basking in the sunshine. Funny then their run for a taxi outside the hotel or place with extreme slowness their luggage on the luxury car deliberately put them on display ... under the listless children look bored as they could . I ask for information to a group of soldiers lying on the ground and sbragate with a lot of weapons and coca cola. I respond to malomodo telling me to turn the tourist office. With my English strimizzito I will not be intimidated and you are controbatto, I presumed a nice gorl .. bat you certainly are a very very maleducacion .. strange .. I do not think he shot ... I find instead the availability of housing, but only after the 19.00 e per leg 250 dollars (?) I feel ... miss .. and run. .in a town a few miles away to Neve Zohar
Here I find a kind of village-camping (?) I ask a gentleman if I can stay, he agrees. Show me the bedroom shop (!!sigh!! the rest I have no choice) I asked the correspondent 5 Euro (currency lodcale), and then .. "disappears.". I realize then that it was now a place unattended. Alone and lost morale and courage to make me think + : I pretend to be.. indeed I am convinced that this tent is a kind of Harem sun widows that soon ... I hope ... fall
