Christmex time

This is the thirteenth consecutive year that I spend Christmas outside Italy. Even though my life is here I can’t forget the Christmas holidays in my native country.

Christmas in Mexico City

Today, before the eve, I will be in downtown and of course I will photograph. Since 2009 Christmas is here to me.

Tomorrow as Italian tradition I will be busy to cook fish dishes. It will be days that I will spend relaxing by detaching a little, maybe even a little from photography. For the new year I have enthusiasm but also fear. These past two years have been devastating for humanity. Difficult for me too, incurable optimist.

From here I can only wish that good people can defeat these evil ones who are trying to impose an unnatural existence. I will always be here to tell the truth. I also paid a pledge this year for this but I certainly do not give up and do not retreat. I am and will always be fighting, as a free man, as a journalist and photographer. These tyrants enemies of freedom who cover various levels in society have no chance of winning because they go against nature.

The truth will win!
