the ‘World Press Free­dom Day’ annually cele­brates the fundamental princi­ples of press free­dom. May 3rd is also to defend media from attacks on their inde­pend­ence & to pay tribute to jour­nalists who lost their lives on duty.

off duty was my GPS during my road­trip through Italy in 2014. I ended up in Cinque Terre. and I enjoyed every second of this lucky mistake. the ‘Five Lands’ is a rugged, steep coast­line on the Italian Riviera that is surrounded by hills. it comprises five villages in the Ligu­ria region that are care­fully built as terraces. a special charm is the lack of visible cor­porate develop­ment. the ‘Cinque Terre National Park’ is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

a ‘silver lining’ is an expression to symbolize hope in an unfor­tunate situation.
