Virtual Journey

The moment has arrived which I have been putting off, waiting for and at the same time dreading: I am working full time on the new book which tells of my adventure with Fabio. The long pause on the blog was not due to laziness, but the demands of writing again. I don’t suffer from writer’s block, actually it is the contrary, I have so much to tell that I fear I wont have enough space. I am completely immersed in it: with my mind there, in the middle of the desert and I am retracing step by step the journey, to relive every moment as if it were the present, feeling the fatigue even physically. To do this I have to isolate myself, stay alone and be with my thoughts, reconstructing every moment of the challenge. For a few days I decided to leave everyone and hide myself in my little retreat in the snow, to remember the special moments. Also Fabio is working and his writing, very different than mine, is from the point of view of a blind person living a life changing experience. The alternating of our testimonies is fusing together so well and the result is better than my most optimistic hopes. And thus….we go forward!
