Want to be embraced by a mysterious lightness?

On the weekend of 16/17 February we went to Torino to experience the Olympics. The day before we left we were looking for a B&B near the city to spend the night. We went online to look for options, when we found out the B&B Luna (www.luna.asti.it) in Monferrato, near Asti. We were browsing their website when we found two amazing pieces of promotional writing. Only someone very, very inspired and talented could have written it. The English version adds to the highly poetic message a pint of poor translation, which makes it... quite unique. If you speak French or German make sure you check the site.

Pink Room: "The pink room is characterized from a furnishing in liberty style. Its dimensions and its proportions render it intimate and discreet. A caress of mysterious lightness embraces to you between evocative images."
Blue Room: "The blue room prominences for its fresh lines. The square shape renders it practical and airy and the elegance of furnitures adapts well to the gentility of ensamble. A relaxation feeling tells far histories to you."

I have to say that we got a great night of sleep on the pink room. I may not have felt the caress of a mysterious lightness embracing me between evocative images, but I certainly felt carried on Somnus' steady arms and gently delivered to his beloved son Morpheus, who wrapped his black wing around me and took me to a distant place of which I remember absolutely nothing.

Do you do it?

Regardless of what you think you can be, you're not what you are until you do it.

Good condition?!?!

I was browsing secondamano, an Italian site where users can sell second hand goods, for good deal on a car. In the list came out this Piaggio Ape, which is a noisy crossover aberration between a scooter and a Fiat 600.

The ad mentions that the 'thing' features a 'green bottle' color and that it has 37,000Km (can it take that much?). It also mentions that it is in good condition and the cause for selling is lack of usage. It's just me or do you also see a flat tire?
