After returning from India, early October, we went for a wine-tasting weekend in Morbegno:

And on the way back, we went to Lago di Como (the North part though, where neither Fedor nor me had ever been):

Shortly after, Marie and Stephie came to visit and we had a lot of fun, taking funny pictures everywhere:

Finally, recently the new University Building was officially opened (as was the academic year, at the same time), by President Napolitano and Chairman of the European Commission Baroso (woohooo, I saw another president!). For this momentous occassion, there were a few things organised at the university, and we went to a lovely concert where they were playing Astor Piazzolla music (did I mention I LOVE Piazzolla??? Well, i do!). Additionally, it turns out that our new building has won an apparently rather prestigious award, as well: linky. Anyways, here are a few pictures of the amazing new building:

(oh, and indeed, these are the pictures taken by the organisation blabla, not my own, etc)

Well, that was a summary of the past months, in pictures. If more comes to mind, I'll expand this post....

Ciao!

MY goodness, I should definitely drop by more often! I guess you're happy not being in India these days. Hope Paris goes/went well.
