Nature is Free: Embracing the Magic of Val di Fumo

In this article I share how a simple Instagram story inspired me to take a liberating walk amidst nature’s beauty. With my camera in hand, I captured moments of peace and hope to inspire others to appreciate and protect nature. Let’s cherish this gift and preserve it for generations to come. Join me on this journey of discovering the freedom and magic of Val di Fumo!

Hey there, fellow! 

So, a couple of days ago, I came across this Instagram story by Dario Vignali that got me all emotional. He simply wrote, “nature is free”, those words stuck with me like super glue! I mean, have you ever thought about that phrase? 

“Nature is free” – it’s so simple yet so powerful.

Yesterday, I took a walk in Val di Fumo. I gotta mention this huge dam where you leave your car behind and the adventure begins. Trust me, as soon as I stepped away from the city, it felt like I was leaving all the hustle, bustle, and noise behind too. It’s like a retreat from modern life – time slows down, and you forget about all your troubles.

Lucky me, living in a place surrounded by nature, where in just a few hours, I can get lost in the wilderness.

I obviously brought my camera. And that hike in Val di Fumo inspired me to snap some shots. It’s like capturing a bit of that tranquility and purity, y’know? A little piece of heaven that I can take with me and share with the world.


I hope those pics make others feel the same thrill and appreciation for nature as I do. Because nature isn’t just free, it’s like a gift open to everyone – no hidden fees or exclusivity!

Now, don’t get me wrong; I know that nature isn’t always all rainbows and butterflies. We’ve seen some wild climate events lately in northern and southern Italy – whirlwinds and fires wreaking havoc. And yes, it kinda hits home that we play a part in that. We might not be solely responsible, but we can’t turn a blind eye to the impact we’ve had on our environment, for better or worse.

As I soak in the beauty of nature, I can’t help but feel this responsibility to protect it. I mean, if we cherish these moments of bliss in nature, we’ve gotta step up and do our part to keep it intact, right? Let’s face it; we’re not doing great in that department lately.

You know what? Nature’s gift of freedom is right there, waiting for us to embrace it. So, let’s take a walk in Val di Fumo or any breathtaking spot in this amazing world. It’s like a getaway from all the noise and chaos of city life. But hey, as we indulge in this natural bliss, let’s remember something important – we’ve got to treat this gift with care. We wouldn’t want to spoil it for ourselves and the generations to come, right? So, let’s enjoy nature to the fullest, but let’s also be mindful of our impact and do our part to preserve it.

In a nutshell, “nature is free,” and it’s here for all of us to appreciate. Yesterday’s walk reminded me of the magic in getting away from it all. And it’s our job to make sure that freedom stays intact for years to come. 

So, go out there, take a walk, breathe in the fresh air, and let nature work its wonders on you. Let’s appreciate it, protect it, and pass it on – because “nature is free” and should remain that way forever.
