Leaf Peeping (White Mountains, NH)

October 18th, 2009

The White Mountains (New Hampshire) are an awesome place to admire the colors of Fall in New Hampshire. Around the 12th of October, my birthday, reaching the top of a peak is priceless. If you jump to my album of pictures watch the pictures full size (right icon on the middle-top of each picture) the resizing messes up the colors. And now it is time to get ready for another cold Winter…

May trip to Washington DC

It is always nice to spend some time at the Boston MFA (Museum of Fine Arts).

Anything strange?

Niagara Falls

April 15th, 2008

In the week end, I have been to Buffalo for an intensive course on biomedical ontologies. No R&R but at least I got to see the falls right before the dark. Well, I visited the American side of the falls… which I’ve been told is the less spectacular… but still…

NYC MoMA

March 29th, 2008

This is seriously one of the most impressive collection of modern art I’ve ever seen. Picasso, Dali, Martisse, De Chierico, Van Gogh, Chagall, Kandinsky, Cezanne, Warhol… really amazing. Plus it is in the City which is always a nice place to visit…

Welcome to the MoMA!

Sunday morning thoughts…

February 3rd, 2008

It is almost a couple of months I moved to Boston. The winter is not that cold as it probably should be. Snow is already gone and sometimes it is raining. I think about Italy that is anyway wormer, about some friends that are there. Sometimes I feel the need to go to north end (the Italian neighborhood) for some pastries and a espresso that looks more Italian than the ones you can have around. I’ve never been a coffee guy but I guess everything that makes you feel at home is good. Oh, my workmate Marco surprisingly makes a really good Cappuccino right at home… a good way to start the work day. But I started also to appreciate other things that I was not usually eating in Italy (pancakes!!!!!). Ok, time to start the day… happy Superbowl!

Wind (Storm?) of change

December 12th, 2007

On Friday, a couple of my students are going to defend their Master Thesis. I’ll be present and I have to say that this is a special event for me. I have been mentoring other students before… but the idea that this project became true and available open source is somehow awesome (JDPF project). Moreover, they are probably going to be my last students in Pavia (Italy). In fact, I am moving elsewhere after something like 15 years. Packing time is almost over… let’s see if snow storms are going to be over when I am supposed to land.

Leaving Las Vegas… oops Boston.

October 26th, 2007

Here we go, going back to Europe once again. I left Boston with 26 degrees and I landed in Paris with 2 degrees Celsius. Luckily, in Milan it was a bit better 16. I left Boston in one of the best moments of the year… the Fall, with its beautiful colors.
