The Motive

Inside this book, you will find the dearest and most cherished memories I keep close to my heart. Here, I share the chronicles of a journey, not merely across lands and seas, but into the hidden depths of the soul. How a seventeen-year-old boy from Calabria managed to cross the ocean and the mountains to find his place in the world, in the great city of Buenos Aires.Life challenged me in ways that often resembled astonishing and unimaginable tales. I hope these words become a beacon of inspiration to help you navigate your own stormy seas and discover the courage that lies deep within you. I wish that every young person, as they dive into these pages, may find a reflection of their own struggles and triumphs.As you will see in these memoirs, life can be a demanding and passionate challenge, but it also grants us the wonderful chance to transform ourselves and find meaning, even in the darkest of times.Eugenio
