EU needs an Obama but with a European flavour. Shall we go for gay?
by Filippo Addarii
I’m on my way back. I’ve spent 2 weeks traveling up and down across Japan to promote our new baby JACEVO. I tried a Ryokan – a traditional Japanese inn – and dry fish for breakfast. I got naked amongst women and kids in a public baths, and had Kobe beef for the first time in my life: the best meet in the world.
Leaving fun on the side – we have already Sir Bub specilized in travellers’ gastronomical adventures – this trip helped me looking at Europe through the lenses of another society so far so similar: ancient, traditionalist, postindustrial, high-technological with an ageing society wondering about the future in a globalizing society.
Question: are we all so scared by change?
