about me
Starting a new chapter in Los Angeles in 2012 was both exciting and daunting. Used to my Piazza di Madonna di Monti in Rome, where on a daily basis I would have had my dose of salutes, familiar faces and neighborhood habits, Los Angeles I was told would be far from that.
I landed however in Downtown LA, offering me the opportunity to live with a whole neighborhood to discover by foot. Fascinated by the place, its building and its people, this blog documents Downtown as I am getting to know it. What follows is my journey learning about Downtown, as well as the people living, working and spending time in this part of Los Angeles.
Enjoy!
