Answering to your questions


I am sorry for the late publishing of this post, but I had some very important meetings plus I traveled by plane to Greece.

I also met today with a publisher, as the preparations for my book are soon to be concluded. If nothing wrong will happen, we will be able to officially launch it at MIPIM exhibition, [...]
