Hello! I haven't added here any new posts for over two years now, but I see you still read my story, and that's absolutely insane! Thank you! I'm writing this post to give you some news that you maybe don't know about. Well, I have published two books since I stopped publishing here - Once Upon a Time There Were Two Poetry Books... & Laura's Diary - My Awesome Life . And I got a new blog now.

You can consider buying anything from me until midnight 27th December CET if you wanna save money and maybe buy presents. Oh, and I have a podcast where I talk about poetry and music.

Note No. 44. Relics, Systems, Gardens, Seas and Fame

-
29 th August 1820 I have found an incredible treasure today – relics of Francesco and Laura… I had to buy it. J’aime (I love) Sonnets to Laura by Petrarch… I had to buy it. Even when its value is only sentimental. Besides, languages are very systemic (well, every langues is nothing but system), while I met a human today whom I could not understand. No treasure of the world would make me understand. Was he speaking Italian or French? Je ne sais pas… (I do not know…) Example of real hate to conventions, I guess. But also, so… mean? L’ignorance? I love gardens. When I remind myself those English gardens… I was truly delighted. I made few sketches. I will have to take home with me few of those trends. Gardens at Stowe probably made a mark on my brain the best… Huge it was. The must-see place. It was one of first spots we visited just after we arrived in England.

28 th August 1820   Looks like it has been a year since the last time I wrote anything… There are so many things to write about now. Imagine that I am in the beautiful city called Rome right now. William Anthony is almost 5 months old. He was born on 5 th April 1820. Our trip has started in May and our first destination was England and Scotland. Four of us went there. In June we went to France, in July Austria and now we are in Italy. I will describe everything with details, do not worry, my dear new diary! Imagine that I was very crazy busy that I absolutely had no time to ask for a new diary at first, then I could not write at all. So much happened! Ah! Where to start? It is particularly good to know languages, now I see. I visited so many different places and I always could get along somehow. I met so many amazing people. I had so many incredible adventures. For real, writing it down will take me so many evenings! I cannot promise that I will write every day, but I wil...
