I founded and do things for BikeSquare.eu and MobilitySquare.eu. There are things I'm nerdy about, in no particular order: trains, coffee, podcasts.

This will be fun. The line between Cuneo and Breil-sur-Roya has not one, not two, not three, but four spiral tunnels. Will be the first time I travel on this #crossborderrail line. But first, from Torino Porta Nuova to Cuneo.

Bike-lanes mean business.

Did you know that a “kissing canopy” is when trees above a street or sidewalk grow to touch overhead, creating a cool, shaded place? Despite it being colder and darker these days, let’s remember the beauty and value that #StreetTrees add to our cities, IF we design for them. #KissingCanopies
