During a culture-shocked exchange year in Japan, 15-year-old Lisa Dempster's imagination is ignited by the story of the henro michi, an arduous 1,200-kilometre Buddhist pilgrimage through the mountains of Japan. Perfectly suiting the romantic view of herself as a dusty, travel-worn explorer (well, one day), she promises to return to Japan and walk the henro michi, one way or another, as soon as humanely possible. Fast-forward 13 years, and Lisa's life is vastly different to what she pictured it would be.

In 1987, thirty-seven footer Trishna, crewed by army officers, became the first Indian boat to circumnavigate the globe. They braved rogue waves sweeping away life-saving equipment, sailed through pods of whales frolicking perilously close, survived the worst storm to have hit Sydney in nearly a century, taking over fifteen months and covering over fifty thousand kilometers. Major A.K. Singh, one of the members of this historic crew, vibrantly describes the epic voyage.

"Non basta essere competenti storici dell'arte per descrivere i luoghi in cui Paolo Sorrentino ha ambientato le splendide scene del suo film 'La Grande Bellezza'. Bisogna conoscere la città in profondità e aver esplorato alcuni tra i suoi angoli più segreti e privati, che spesso non appaiono neanche sui libri." Costantino D'Orazio ha investigato per anni la sua città, ne ha scandagliato i luoghi magici e sconosciuti, ne ha scrutato l'anima invisibile ai turisti.

È proprio così, a Severgnini i viaggiatori interessano davvero: li segue, li osserva, li descrive in modo esilarante, senza però giudicarli o condannarli. "Eravamo turisti. Siamo diventati viaggiatori. Imperfetti, ma viaggiatori" sostiene l'autore. Siamo curiosi, rumorosi, avventurosi, frettolosi, generosi. Leggiamo poco e compriamo troppo. Siamo complessivamente onesti, e giustamente diffidenti. Siamo tolleranti. Mentre gli stranieri che visitano l'Italia si innervosiscono quando s'imbattono in altri stranieri, noi italiani, incontrando altri italiani, festeggiamo l'avvenimento.

Se la fata Morgana vive a Bagno a Ripoli e il Diavolo fa i ponti a Borgo a Mozzano, se a Chiusi ci si può perdere nei labirinti di Porsenna e a Firenze bisogna prestare attenzione al quadrilatero della morte, allora bisogna riconoscere che la Toscana è una regione ancora da scoprire e che, dietro l'arte e la cultura di questa terra, esiste un mondo oscuro: un paesaggio dove l'Ulivo del Sabba di Magliano, la spada nella roccia di Montesiepi, il borgo fantasma di Palaia e la volpe d'oro di Poggibonsi sono solo alcune tappe di un viaggio in cui il mistero è l'attore principale.

Desmesurada, cosmopolita y muy americana. Esta sería una buena descripción para Los Ángeles...si sólo hubiera una. Y es que las siglas "LA" defi nen un conglomerado de lugares tan variado y excéntrico como las diferentes tierras que integran la vecina Disneylandia. Bajo el manto de la eterna juventud se esconde la auténtica esencia de California.

Dos ciudades en una, o al menos lo fueron durante siglos: la boscosa Buda, que desde su castillo sobre las colinas atesora las mejores vistas de, al otro lado del Danubio, el aún más monumental barrio de Pest. Algo de dual tiene también su espíritu. En Navidad, a su porte imperial se suman los mercadillos pero también las fiestas de luces láser en alguno de sus balnearios centenarios.
