Animal testing: only an act of cruelty.

https://www.facebook.com/official.peta/videos/565698033992189/ . We are confronted with a drifting planet, with an emergency climate situation that involves us all: each of us must act immediately. Animal experiments are an aberration, an act of complete cruelty and incivility. I am here to share a video of harsh reality... myself, I admit I couldn't watch it until the …

Help Stop Cruel Experiments on Monkeys (your Gift Will Be DOUBLED!)

(images taken from the web... there are several... horrible and revolting!) Torn from their jungle homes … trapped and terrified in the cargo hold of an airplane … mutilated, abused, and killed in painful experiments.

The snow came back last night * ieri notte è tornata la neve

The snow came back and the thermometer's mercury reads O° celsius (32° Fahrenheit). I look around... women in fur coats, young people wearing jackets with hoods decorated with fur, men with thick padded goose down jackets ... Everyone should know the truth behind these items of clothing! . The farmer in this video casually describes ripping the bloody …

The truth in the mirror * la verità allo specchio

In my stories I try to change reality... my characters come out on tiptoe from my dreams... or they are real people in disguise. Unfortunately, the reality, the raw and true one, which we're unwilling facing every day, is there before our eyes. I apologize to the people who (like me) have weak stomachs, but …

What to say about Claudine?

She is passionate about living a present, balanced and authentic life, with a healthy dose of humor! She loves to travel the world, explore new places, people and food, but equally loves to retreat into silent solitude. She is a writer who follows a hidden path, into an unfamiliar world. If you just surrender and go with her on her eerie journey, you will find that you have surrendered to enchantment, as if in a voluptuous and fantastic dream. She makes you believe everything she sees in her fantasy and dreams. But as well you take a journey to the frozen mountain peaks of the north of Europe, to the crowded sweating streets of Mexico or Africa. Her characters are wonderfully real and wholly believable perfectly situated in her richly textured prose. She’s a lovely person and she writes with exquisite powers of description! She’s simply great!

Chi è Claudine?

Lei è appassionata nel vivere al presente una vita equilibrata e autentica, con una sana dose di humour! Ama viaggiare per il mondo, esplorare nuovi luoghi, persone e cibo, ma ugualmente ama ritirarsi in solitudine, nel silenzio. E’ una scrittrice che segue un sentiero nascosto, verso un mondo sconosciuto. Se solo vi arrendete e andate con lei in questa spettacolare avventura, realizzerete che vi siete confidati all’incantevole, come in un sogno fantastico ed avvolgente. Vi farà credere ad ogni cosa che lei vede nei suoi stessi sogni e fantasie. Ma inizierete anche un viaggio verso le cime ghiacciate del nord Europa, verso le strade affollate del Messico o Africa. I protagonisti sono magnificamente reali e totalmente credibili stupendamente inseriti nella ricca trama di prosa. E’ una “grande” persona e scrive con uno squisito potere descrittivo. E’ semplicemente magnifica.
