We leave Budapest with Flo, Momo and Mik, making two hitchhiking teams, direction Italia! The hitch doesn't turn so well for me and Flo, in Hungary we have some hard time leaving, afterward in Italy it's more that Flo would like to take the train -because if you don't pay they just throw you out of the train, no fine- but I definitely prefer to hitchhike, so the atmosphere is not so good.
After two days we finally reach Corazzano, in Tuscany countryside, where lives my friend Annemarie with her family. She is recovering from a very serious illness, which made her come back in emergency from Lebanon where she was working. I absolutely wanted to visit her, because for me it feels so strange that she would could have been gone, without me knowing, while I hadn't even seen her for a least a couple of years!
And also, I wanted to show the place her parents live to my friends, because it's very close to the kind of lifestyle we had been discussing for ages...
