Post Scriptum: 
When we travel, we travel with open minds and open hearts, in full respect of all human beings.
And animal beings.
And vegetal.
And extraterrestrial. (!)
So, we apologize in advance if some images might hurt people feelings, but traveling for us is really about embracing and fully experiencing different traditions, different cultures and different ways.
Because we believe that there cannot be just one way to see this world...

Despite the fact that indeed there is a need to raise awareness on gender based discriminations, I feel that this day should also be used to celebrate the accomplishments of women in the world. 

To celebrate inspiring women.

I've found inspiring women almost everywhere I went. Those I've met in Vietnam.

If you feel like knowing a bit more on what Europe is doing to promote gender equality, here is an interesting site. And here and here for a more global perspective.

On a more personal note, let me celebrate two really special women.
My little sis will be 30 tomorrow....tanti auguri Marziotti! Anche da chi ci guarda da lassu'.
