To work as a volunteer always involves more than the actual time spent at the site. It's a way to share or gain experience in a multitude of fields and is, of course, a fantastic way to give back to the community. Volunteering abroad is all that and more. Coupling volunteer work with travel creates an incredible combination that provides greater knowledge of a foreign culture and affords an opportunity to learn more about yourself. Patagonia is a dream destination for hikers and nature love...

An article about Italy's match vs. Nigeria in the world cup USA 94 and how close we came to being eliminated, only to bounce back and win it in overtime.
Italy was in the round of 16 in USA 94, after having barely qualified by the skins of their teeth. Third in their group, in a world cup that allowed such teams to move on to the next round. Of course, this would not have been possible in the following world cup however for Italian supporters this hardly mattered. Italy was through to the k...

It was the summer of 1994 and the date was June 18, a day on which Italy would be playing its first world cup game against the Republic of Ireland. I for my part would be not only watching it but even present at "Giant's Stadium" in the Meadowlands as I had gone through the trouble of getting a ticket, not only to see Italy take on Ireland but Norway in the next match as well. Regarding the game against Norway that had been a relatively easy task as interest had not been so high given there are...

It happened in late September of 92, while I was in Buenos Aires that I decided to go back to Lima, Peru from where I knew I would go back to the United States but only after having captured that part of Peruvian life I had yet to really see.
The part I make reference to is those shanty towns which in Spanish or at least in Peru are referred to as "pueblos Jovenes", which if literally translated in to the English language would be "young towns". This an expression which to a certain extent...

It was the end of the spring of 1990 and I found myself living in Warsaw, Poland where at the time I was attending a Polish course at the University of Warsaw, where I just happened to meet Danilo Facca from Pordenone, Italy. Danilo and I would go on to become friends and it would also be Danilo who introduced me to Catallini, the director of the Italian Center of Culture in Warsaw at the time. This the place which during the world cup would be open to all Italians or descendents of which; like...

Belgium in all honesty had their chances and perhaps might have scored one or even two on that day but the truth is that Maradona was just too overwhelming, even to the point of having Jean Marie Pfaff congratulate him after the game in an exhibition of gallantry. Belgium like England had played well defensively but against a great player on a great day there is little that could be done, and who knows what might have been if that ball had not hit the crossbar but gone in? Or if Valdano had not...

I for my part will never forget a conversation I had while in Ecuador with Vito Munoz (one of the top local sports announcers in Guayaquil) who claimed in the presence of my Spanish brother-in-law as well as mine how Maradona had been cursed by first his greatness. First by having to play for Menotti; a trainer who got sentimental over his players to the point of not seeing them for what they were but what they had been. Second by having to play for a "bunch of clowns" like Barcelona (my brothe...

My resentment came mostly that Maradona did not play for Italy though it is often debated weather or not his ancestral roots might have been Italian. His last name not being Italian though it might have been taken from. Many Argentineans after all are of Italian descent but it is unsure weather Maradona is. As a personal note I will say that in all my time in South America I have never heard of anybody other then him having Maradona as a last name. It is during the time after the youth world cu...

Once an American sports commentator said that the great ones are loved at the beginning of their career, hated in the middle and once again loved at the end. This probably being because at the start they are young and as we see them improve we take enthusiasm as we see them grow in their talent. They naturally are not fully developed and make mistakes along the way but this can be overlooked given their youth and yet when they manage something spectacular this we praise all the more for the rea...

When I first started watching football back in 1977 and the time that lead up to the World Cup played in 1978 in Argentina, I apart from becoming a great fan of the sport learnt the basics as to what was the game of football. By the "basics" I mean not just learning what the object of the game was but the rules that included knowing the meaning of words such as off sides, a direct free kick, an indirect free kick, penalty, foul and many others. I however did not limit myself to learning the rul...

It is strange and wonderful how dissimilar all these Christmas habits are, ranging from waiting till January 6, "Dia de Los Reyes" (Day of Kings) to open up ones presents (tradition practiced in Spain) to Poland where people do not even delay till Christmas day as their present...

I remember being in Peru in 1991 on what turned out to be a one and a half year stay in South America that saw me visit countries such as Argentina, Chile, Bolivia and Ecuador but it was during my stay in Lima that I discovered the television program "Nube Luz". I don't recall the exact day but it was on a Saturday morning in the month of September that I turned on the television to what appeared to be a television show for toddlers called "Nube Luz".
As for the show itself it had nothing t...
