Londinium MMXXII

I’m Orazio. Welcome to my journal, where I document the chaos and charm of my life since moving to London. Expect a rollercoaster of emotions as I navigate the ups and downs of living abroad, tackling everything from relationship struggles and the challenges of gay life to moments of pure joy and self-discovery. My posts are a mix of pessimism and optimism, spirituality and sarcasm, filled with “what the fuck” realisations and reflections on life’s absurdities. Join me on this unpredictable journey as I strive to find my path, laugh at the madness, and sometimes just scream into the void.

Godrevy Lighthouse

Cornwall, 14 09 2023

Sea, seals, wind and heathers along the way

The beacon of light in sight 

Rough winds and mild sun

Burnt but enjoying the heat

Cooling down in Perranporth

Refreshing tired feet

Each night a new town

A new barn to sleep

The path is luring us further 

Closer to the cliffs

Sweet honeysuckle and berries 

smoking a few spliffs 

Rough and lovely

Quiet but lively

The seaside towns have their charm 

Clotted cream and tea

Where else do you say ‘hello’ to strangers?

Cornwall

Where the land meets the sea 

Orazio Overton
