    Geopolitics on the road

    2025: Walk with me in Georgia!

    I’m a cultural guide and a passionate explorer of the unknown. For years, I’ve dedicated myself to studying the ethnogeography of the Ancient Silk Roads and the geopolitics of their modern counterparts.

    I’ve crossed those lands twice, from Europe to the borders of China, traveling by whatever means I could find—soaking in the deep connection between generations, a connection I no longer feel in Italy or much of Europe today.
    I’ve studied these routes, walked them, and shared them with the people who live there—people who, for generations, have seen no foreigners pass through.

    This year, I want to take you to the Caucasus—a true crossroads: geographic, political, and cultural. It stands between a world you know and one you don’t.
    From the heights of those mountains, you’ll see far more than you expect. And you won’t need a mountain expert to understand it—you’ll need perspective.

    I’ve explored every route I offer, driven by a hunger for knowledge.
    Now, I want to take you to the places that satisfied that hunger, where I felt safe, and where I know your mind and your steps will move together—leaving you with something unforgettable.

    There’s no better way... to find the right questions.

    September is harvest time in the mountains of Upper Svaneti. Along the way, we'll pick wild blueberries and raspberries ripened by the summer, while the first mushrooms begin to appear in the woods.
    The air becomes clearer, the days slow down, and towards the end of the month, the leaves begin to turn red, ushering the villages into the quiet and winter rest. The landscape changes pace: it becomes profound, taciturn, perfect for those seeking a moment of peace and reflection in the mountains.

    A late-season journey, when the mountains give back what they have cultivated all summer.
