How do you write your papers/articles/projects?

Usually I "write" them in my mind first, and only after I can write them for real. Possibly on a full train. Or under the rain. Or in any other uncomfortable condition you can think about

Recently I have been travelling by train more than usual (which means A LOT), so this #book is the perfect companion :)

Also, travelling with Trenitalia/Trenord is quite as challenging as crossing the wastelands on a steam train 🤣

Night walk in Lodi, #Italy, along the Adda river.

#Photography
A view of Lodi from the river banks at night. The last rays of the sun light up the sky behind the church bell tower. The rest of the sky is dark blue and grey. The lights in the house are on and their reflection is visible in the dark water of the river.

Night walk: crossing the Adda river on the Bonaparte bridge in Lodi, #Italy

The original wood bridge, where Napoleone fought against the Austrians in 1796, was destroyed during the second Italian independence war in 1859

The new bridge is made by eight masonry arches
