“Genova in comitiva. Giubilio. Anima viva.
Genova in solitudine, straducole, ebritudine.”

A city of oxymorons, where the beautiful coexists in harmony with the decadent.
A city where every corner shows its history without shame, proud of its past.
A city where people live on top of each other and are like slate: black, cold, elegant and eternal.
An apparently chaotic city but extremely simple to love if you have the eyes to observe it.
A city of ups and downs, a metaphor for life
A city I've tried to escape from all my life, only to feel nostalgic once I'm gone.
The city that welcomes you silently, respectfully. It enters your heart and never comes out again.
