For me, it has to be Silverstone for the British Grand Prix, took my Dad every year, sharing a passion for Formula 1. Great memories. Sadly lost dad in 2023. But the passion remains in my heart.
Sharing a passion has extra qualities, being together in that moment, that’s another reason why I love ABF so much too. Just finding the connection with you all can be tricky.
Great question.
The thing I would leave that I have cherished would be my home.
The place where I lived for half of my life, where my late partner and I built our family, where my kids grew up, where he died.
Its time. To let go, to appreciate who we are now, to celebrate this new chapter in life.
To move forward.
What would I bring to that tropical island?
1. Memories
2. Love
3. Telepatia ( the song)I just came across this post and I want to answer all of the questions!
1) My first “real” concert was Articolo 31 (a famous Italian band from the 90s/00s) in Milan
2) A place I hold dear to my heart is Portovenere (Italy). It’s a small seaside village near my home, though unfortunately, I don’t get to go there very often. There is a church built right on the edge of the sea; on winter days, I’ve always been fascinated by the sight of the rough waves “slapping” the building while the church remains still and impassive. Speaking of travel, Utrecht (Netherlands) also stayed in my heart—it gives me such a sense of peace, though I couldn’t tell you exactly why.
3) My go-to song when I’m in a good mood is “Queen of the Night Aria” by Mozart, while my “sad” song is “L’anima non conta” by Zen Circus.
4) The one lesson that really stuck with me came from my first boss: shoes must always match your belt. It might sound trivial, but to me, it felt like a piece of fatherly advice. He taught me how to carry myself.
5) My first car was a VW Golf Mk5.
6) If I had to give up something I like, I’d choose all my vices for health reasons.
7) On a deserted island, I’d bring my PC (to enjoy movies, music, and games), a pair of sunglasses, and my cat.If you met your 10-year-old self, what lesson learned in the years since would you give them?
T, I am a book person and I, too, have lost my parents. I totally felt your answer. I have a small library of more than 4,000 books, some very old. To whom would they go? No one finds this of interest in my circle. But they cannot go with me when I pass. Anyway, from one book lover to another, I see you! 💯🙂💛
Well Luca my ten year old self wants to do things his own way. I’m not sure he’d listen to me.
Don’t tease others so much to deflect off of you. I got bullied a lot. As a teenager a few of your closest sister’s friends really like you. Nurture those friendships.😉My first live concert was 1975, i was 7y. My mom and dad where huge fans, so they took me there too. On my own, Hanoi Rocks 1982 Finland.
For next one, that one is hard, Finland in Minnesota and Ely are in same line. I just love people in there and that beautiful nature + Sauna 🙂
My favorite song, there is couple of them. Amorphis, Black winter Day, it will be always inmy heart, that was our wedding song. She wanted to celebrate weird Finnish mentality eaven in their happyest times.
Insomnium – While We Sleep not always when im down, but its in sad place.Person who tought me important lesson: Dad, later time my wife.
My first car was Saab 99, ugly green.This will be not so funny answer, but my life. Im soldier, now and till end of days, so…
To tropical island: Sauna, pc and dog.
To 10y old me, id tell, that follow your dreams, life is beautiful and world is mazing place.Korsto, i love that message! 10 year old me was going through some really tough things so I’d tell her to hang in there because life gets so much better.
I missed a lot of good questions but I’m gonna ask another because my TBR pile is mocking me from the nightstand and I still don’t feel like cracking open any of these books. I’m suffering from book ennui, lol. What is your favorite book or movie, and why is it your favorite?
Ooh, good question! I have a few favourite films, but the one I have to pick is Hacksaw Ridge. Set in WW2, it shows me that no matter how bad things get, there is always someone who wants to help. It doesn’t matter if they are on his side or not; it restores my faith in human kindness. I know that might sound strange given all the death in the film, but amidst all that chaos, it proves there is always light in the darkest times.
