Rome – City
Arriving in Rome, we took a walk through the city center. I’d never been here before, and I’m still amazed by this city! Lots of great architecture, lots of life on the streets.

Marta
A calm small town named Marta at the Lago di Bolsena . Saw a little egret for the first time: beautiful!
Civita di Bagnoregio
The “dying city”– the rock below this city is eroding and will be gone at one point. There are just a few people (and lots of cats!) living there. I think this town has more restaurants than inhabitants. Totally worth a trip!
Orvieto
Another city on a rock – that‘s common thing in this region. The rock had a lot of tunnels underneath, most of them were dug by the Etruscan some 2.500 years ago. People later expanded these tunnels to be comfortable from the cold in winter as well as from the heat in summer. At some point they had to limit tunnels to avoid a collapse of buildings atop. History is so interesting!
Pitigliano
Located in the south of Tuscany, this old town sits atop a rock above some canyons. In the canyons below, there are lots of old caves and alleys by the Etruscan people from 2.500 years ago. Feels like being in a jungle, a bit like in Angkor Wat! Never would have expected something like this here. It’s impressive how much they did dig back then.
Bolsena
The city giving the name to the adjacent lake . Those narrow alleys and old town centers are so cool in southern Europe.
Lago di Bolsena
This years summer vacation we spent in Italy. Our first stay was close to Lago di Bolsena, at the border of Lazio and Tuscany. It was hot but the pool was refreshing. The large agritourism estate was quite empty – somehow there was just one other family, so we often had the garden, the pool and so on for ourselves.
AI Economics for Dummies
➭ Visit link This post by Andrew Singleton is great: it shows how absurd the current AI bubble is. Really great comparisons like this one: Acquiring one grape costs Alex $2 billion. Alex offers to sell Mike one grape a month for the next 12 months for $1 billion per grape. Alex asks for the full $12 billion up front and provides Mike with one grape for the first month. Alex makes a $10 billion…
