Casa Verdi, the rest home for penniless musicians
MILANO In 1896, the Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi founded Casa di Riposo per Musicisti: a home to host older musicians and opera singers, less lucky than him, people who had lived for Music and then found themselves penniless in their sunset years. Swiss photographer Eric Bachmann and German journalist Christian Kämmerling take us to inside this place.

Suppose you meet a gorilla at Christmas
UGANDA Try to imagine the scene: it’s Christmas morning and we are in the middle of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, far south of Uganda, at the border with Rwanda and Democratic Republic of Congo, trying to meet some gorillas in their natural habitat. Just the time to get there and we find out why they call it impenetrable forest: there are no marked paths, only dense vegetation.

The child of Kumbh Mela
INDIA An encounter to remember, during the largest spiritual meeting in the world which is held every 12 years in Prayag (Allahabad), the place where the three sacred rivers converge: the Ganges, the Yamuna and the mythological (invisible) Saraswati. Where they celebrate gods… but it’s about humanity.
