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. Jump HERE to see how my London dream began…

Pale sunlight

Leytonstone 28 11 2023

I’m sitting in the grass in the Leytonstone flats, absorbing the rays of the soft, pale sun.

Last night we woke up at 4am, making out and ending up having sex. I wanted to sleep again after, but Topo was wide awake and started doing chores ?!

At 7 I had a call with my company and big boss, and lots to do after. But since the sun was shining… I couldn’t wait til Topo was off to work and I could roll a spliff and head out to the east! I made it! It’s 2:41, the sun is already so close to the horizon, it’s surreal ! Midday becomes the new sundowner.

Anyway the spliff hit, I saw a parakeet couple in my oak tree and tried to feed them.

Sun starts to feel warm on the left side of my face, tilted to the sun at 45°. It feels nice. Dry grass looks moody. Enjoy every minute xo
