At Punta Ala Sail & Cook, where sailing meets gourmet genius, the incredible team from @davittorioristorante turned a seaside competition into a three-Michelin-starred masterpiece. 🇮🇹⭐️⭐️⭐️

With their trademark easygoing Italian flair, they cooked outdoors (in transferta!) and wrapped it all up with their legendary *paccheri* —as unforgettable as the sea breeze. 🌊🍝

Sail, cook, repeat!

He’s here to lead a fitness class—but not your average, polished, sterile sort. Oh no. This is beach-body madness, and every limb in sight is either flailing with joy or pumping to the beat of Italian trash pop classics.

The crowd? Italian ladies of every decade. Nonna squad front and center, neon leggings blazing. If you think cardio’s just for the young, think again—these women _own_ the sand.

For sure we were hot—more than 30 °C , and when you run you "produce" about 10 more! Sometimes I really ask myself why I put myself into this 😁🥵

      🔮 "You need to stop running." That’s what th 🔮 "You need to stop running."

That’s what the sports doctor at Zürich’s prestigious clinic told me—serious, authoritative, like he was delivering a prophecy 🧙

Osteoarthritis. Degenerative. Hallux rigidus. Aging. Stop. Running.

I listened, nodded, tried not to look like a rebellious teenager being told to stay off their phone. I believe in science, I respect doctors—but I also believe in getting second (or third) opinions. 

And, well… here I am. No surgery, no magic pills. Just foot exercises, a healthy lifestyle, and maybe a little stubbornness

15 years later : still running🏃🏻‍♀️😁

Yup, you read that right—not pilots, not seamen, but for people who prefer leg day… every day. 

Meet the Top Time B01 Fausto Coppi, a wild ride of a watch inspired by the legendary “Campionissimo” himself. Think turquoise subdials, a lightning bolt seconds hand, and enough vintage cool to make your Lycra blush. Precision? Yes. Boring? Never.

And hey—it’s always fun to _"borrow"_ @gadgetgubi's bike… especially when it's rocking that perfect celeste shade. It’s like the watch and the wheels were destined to match.

@georgeskern I want to see you wearing this! 🔥
