Today is an amazing day: I bought a Lonely Planet China!

Yeah, just buy a book it is not a good reason to be happy, but it means that I’m planning to visit China.
Like every year, next July I will partecipate to the RoboCup competitions, and after a week of hard work I will take a small trip with my friends. Are you wondering where? But in China of course!
To be honest I’m a little bit worried about what Chinese government are doing: they are killing Tibetan monk manifesting for their freedom. I’m very upset about any human rights violation (I’m a member of Amnesty International).
China is not an exception. Moreover with the Olympic Games held in Beijing, it seemed that something should have changed. I guess China is loosing opportunity to change the world.
This trip will the occasion to explore a small part of an ancient culture, which nothing have to do with current Government. It is a pity that they have such a awful behavior.
I will go there for the ancient culture and not for what China is now. And I’m sure that chinese people are not the same. In the future I hope they will understand how to tolerate and respect life of human beings.

For those that don’t know what CatchImprò is, they want to read this (Italian here).
CatchImprò is the name of a kind of Improvisational theatre, that start played just last year in Italy.
Next Febrary 9th, a show will be hold in my hometown.
I’m an active member of local Amnesty International group (here you can find our website. Try to guess who is the webmaster 
) and we organized such event related to Amnesty International Campaign to promote defense of Human Rights in China.
I was charged to design the poster of manifestation and here it is the result:

The forfeiture of life is too absolute, too irreversible, for one human being to inflict it on another, even when backed by legal process.
Let the states that still use the death penalty stay their hand lest in time to come they look back with remorse knowing it is too late to redeem their grievous mistake.
