They are right

All the guys I know this summer will be moving around Italy and Europe like crazy pinball balls. Without making long journeys, which in between must return for the recall of the vaccine and then the parents do not like that they go too far. Nicola, who is twenty years old and broke up with his historical girlfriend, goes the first week of August to Zakynthos with eight friends, the second to Ponza with his basketball mates and the third to Liguria by bike, alone.

Arianna first goes to Corsica in a tent with her boyfriend, then a week in Mykonos with her friends and then four days in Paris with her cousin. Bea will work for a month in a refugee camp near Athens, then she will go by boat to Croatia and then join her family in Valle d’Aosta but warned them not to count on her because she intends to stay out all three days of the festival. of beer. Massimino and Martina, who are twins, after high school leave for an inspection in Maastricht where they will go to study Psychology next year, then they want to go camping in Albania and maybe take a ride to Montenegro, before joining friends in Cesenatico. . Francesca in July – after having made the Camino de Santiago with her friend Teresa – reaches the companions of the collective in Salento and if she finds a job afterwards she wants to visit all of Puglia well. Nina leaves on a Vespa with Carlotta and they want to tour the entire Adriatic coast from Ravenna until they run out of money. They hope to reach Lecce. As for the return, who knows. They are hungry and I understand them. They are hungry for surprising encounters, new places, streets, trains, cities, aperitifs, bars, they want to dance, have a morning, be stupid, dress up as a disco, flirt, travel, have fun, let off steam and not think. They want to fall in love, meet different people, bullshit, take risks, exaggerate, hug, make out, make discoveries and not think that anything they do can have dangerous consequences. They’re young. They are right.
