In Sicily

Fabio and I will be in Sicily for three days to promote our new book. It will be a busy tour but one full of satisfaction, that begins tomorrow evening in Caltanissetta in the splendid Barile Villa, hosted by Angle of Adventure. The next day we will be in Messina in the Visconti Ballroom where Daniela Bonanzinga has organized a important event together with the Union for the Blind and we will end our trip with a meeting Saturday in Catania at the Cavallotto Library.
The public is anxiously waiting and are curious to meet not only me in person, but above all Fabio, who will tell with great passion, as always, about our adventure in the White Desert. I have already been to Sicily before to participate in events and presentations, and each time it is a great pleasure to return. The warmth of the people, the enthusiasm and the beautiful scenery surprise me each time. I will describe to Fabio, as I did in the desert, what is around us and he will surely be able to, with his great sensitivity, appreciate all of its appeal.

Antonio Soccol the great journalist, is missed. For many years he directed NO LIMITS WORLD, the mythical magazine dedicated to the extreme, and he sponsored the epic story of Team Sector No Limits.
For us athletes, Antonio was an important reference point, who told about our adventures with professionalism but above all with great passion. I still remember his joke, when I called him after having completed the crossing of the Salar de Uyuni, in Bolivia. When he heard that I had completed the challenge in 6 days he exclaimed: “you took less time than God took to create the work!” We met each other by chance, after I crossed the desert with the caravan of salt in 1991. In front of an elevator door, while I was telling him of my experience, a friendship was born and my life changed. Thanks to him I entered into Team No Limits and from there began the collaboration that followed me through my crossings of the deserts of the world.
Thank you Antonio, for your calm, your balance, thanks for your advice and for always helping me and following me with passion during my challenges. NO LIMITS WORLD was an important point of reference for all of us athletes, before and after every departure for a new adventure. I will never forget you.
