Something extraordinary happens every time the school leaves the classroom and meets the community. It has happened—or rather, it's about to happen—in Giurdignano, where the very young students of the fifth grade elementary school are preparing to take to the stage in Piazza Municipio on Sunday, July 13th at 9:00 PM, with a theatrical performance freely based on one of the cornerstones of Italian literature: Alessandro Manzoni's The Betrothed.
There are places born with a silent yet powerful mission: to make children's eyes sparkle and adults smile. Hydruntumlandia is one of them. A name reminiscent of history and fantasy, a small universe that every summer in Otranto lights up with lights, colors, and wonder. In the heart of the city, where sport meets fun, this temporary playground has become a tradition. But calling it just a "playground" would be an understatement. Because Hydruntumlandia is a celebration of the imagination, a hymn to childhood, a collective embrace that unites families, laughter, and magic.
There are places that never age, but rather renew themselves with style. In Otranto, Marcello – Le Roy de là crepe is one of them. For years, it has been a go-to place for those seeking taste, warmth, and a touch of French elegance in the heart of Salento. Today, it writes a new chapter in its history with the opening of its new store on Viadotto Idro. This opening is not just a physical expansion, but a declaration of intent: to look forward, without ever forgetting where we started.
Get ready for a new exclusive interview. Coming soon to the blog, a chat with Alessandro Cecchi Paone: journalist, popularizer, and face of Italian TV and culture.
July 10, 2025 will be a date to mark. One of those that, in a few years, we will remember as a watershed: from that day on, Instagram will begin to make public photos and videos searchable by Google (and potentially by other engines), complete with captions, tags and - above all - visual context. Yes, you read that right. The era of images "closed" within a platform opens to a new season: that of extended visibility. The images, reels, carousels, the most iconic (or daily) shots will no longer live only within the social network. They will be traceable on Google by anyone who is looking for that topic, that object, that face, that scene.
On June 8, 2025, I had the pleasure and honor of interviewing the Crifiu, in the splendid setting of the Ristorante Bar La Zinzulusa in Castro (LE), a stone's throw from the sea and under the gaze of the Grotta Zinzulusa, one of the most evocative places in our Salento.
May 10, 2019 – May 10, 2025. Looking back, I can hardly believe it. Six years have passed since Blogalmente was born, a project born from the desire – perhaps the need – to tell and listen, to give voice to stories that deserved their own space. In these six years, everything has happened. Things have happened that, honestly, I would never have imagined. Blogalmente has become a part of me. An extension of my curiosity, of my desire to learn, to restore depth to the people we often only see on the surface. And the most beautiful thing is that I have never been alone: there has always been a lively, attentive, passionate community with me.
Word of mouth has always been one of the most powerful marketing tools. Personal recommendations are essential for creating trust and stimulating interest around a product or service. However, in an era in which communication is dominated by increasingly sophisticated technologies, relying exclusively on word of mouth is no longer enough. To obtain concrete results and reach a large audience, it is necessary to combine this powerful strategy with targeted and well-structured digital communication.
Francesco Barbieri, the anarchist of two worlds forgotten by historyThere are men that history has forgotten, but who have crossed their time with such intensity that they have left an echo, even in the silences of oblivion. Francesco Barbieri, born in Briatico (VV) on December 14, 1895, is one of these.
🌷Oggi, mentre celebriamo la Festa della Liberazione, è importante ricordare il significato profondo di questa giornata. Il 25 aprile non è solo una data nel calendario, ma un simbolo di lotta, speranza e libertà. È il momento in cui l’Italia ha ritrovato la sua voce, libera dal giogo dell’oppressione. In un’Italia ferita e divisa dalla guerra, uomini e donne hanno scelto di non restare in silenzio. Hanno alzato la testa, si sono organizzati, hanno lottato. E grazie a loro, oggi viviamo in una democrazia. Ma cosa significa davvero essere liberi?
April 15, 2025 – When Crifiu release a new song, something familiar and, at the same time, always new happens. With “Merci,” released today in collaboration with Après La Classe, Cesko and il Puccia, we return to that sonic territory that those who love this band know well: an overwhelming mix of energy, awareness and roots that intertwine with contemporary sounds, capable of igniting every listen. A simple, direct, almost universal title: Merci, thank you. A word that encompasses a world.
