“I will be sharing stories, reflections, and behind-the-scenes anecdotes from the book at the California Surf Museum, which I’m so proud to call my second home in California. The ‘two worlds’ in the title refer to California and Italy, two places that shaped who I am. The book offers a blend of travel experiences, cultural reflections, interviews, and stories that tie together art, surf culture, wellness, and the profound connections we make as we navigate life. And of course, there’s plenty of California surf spirit running through its pages!”
