Intervista di Justin Catalano published in the January 8,it 2014 its Head and Di Gola.
Eclectic, solar, intelligent, Curious, nice, from the big-talking .... many positive adjectives to define Cinzia Tosini, Farm Blogger e autrice su questo sito, but perhaps the most appropriate is passionate. I wanted to tell it in his own words and here I am.
• Chi è Cinzia Tosini?
First of all, let me love you just call Cynthia! It 's the first thing I say when I introduce myself. To be honest I'm also Emilia which is the second name that was given to me in memory of my grandfather's legendary Friulian. Therefore, to return to the question - who are? - I will immediately respond that they are simply a woman who for over three years is living a second life.
It all started catching it in his hand, after, passed one initial loss, I reinvested my time in the passions of all time: land, l’agricoltura, wine, and the stories of people. I believe that the main motivation, can be attributed to the fact that as a young girl I grew up in the countryside with his grandparents in Treviso.
Often we do not realize that the earth, if you really lived, leaves a mark in time, in memories, and souls. Unfortunately, the evil of our century is that we run and we live in constant search of goals, without realizing that the primary need is to rediscover the harmony of being in contact with nature.
• Come hai iniziato a scrivere?
My story, at least one of the last years, is a continuous succession of coincidences and joints that slowly led me to write (I swear, I would never have said).
It all started after reading the interview with a winemaker in Aosta. His words had me excited to the point, to convince me to go to Aosta to meet you in person. Its, a hard life, a bit 'as my. When he told me that he had no money to print the label on the back of the bottle of wine he produced, I decided to write a piece, I printed that, and that gave her so that the omaggiasse together with wine.
It was then that I was asked to publish, inserting it into my address book on a site about food and wine: Vino Way. I accepted a little 'hesitant, but only if you can tell the productions starting from the people. After, as He has limited its scope only to Lombardy, decided to exit continuing my adventure with the realization of a site, or better, a dream of which I was a founding member: World Wine Passion. Unfortunately,, not a sharing of some positions, convinced me to turn my Address Book on the site, in a personal blog: Stories of People.
What in recent years has been an obstacle course, intense and accelerated, past by writing what I experienced, listening to people, and traveling the length and breadth of Italy, the way that pleases me to know the area.
• Why did you decide to write starting from the 'people'?
I decided immediately to write about people, primarily because to talk about food and wine, you have to have a lot of experience behind, and secondly, because I realized that I listen to the change in direction of people who had decided to invest their passion in the ground and nell'enogastronomia, really appealed to me.
• Farm blogger, why are you so defined?
Therefore, This definition came about after many reflections made by myself. I was often to correct the other person on duty, when, feeling define a food blogger, I could not find anything fitting for this role. I confess to being better at eating than cooking.
I love the food and wine for his stories, for the territory, for its traditions and its protagonists. I like to know and enjoy experiencing the realities on the 'field', for me the best way! I love to visit the farm accompanied by manufacturers, then, see the evolution and the birth of the products, allows me to understand better understanding of the issues related to them.
It 'was born from these considerations that the definition that I finally felt fit like a glove: farm blogger.
• After three years, experiences that you feel you've gained?
Many are the experiences, I learned a lot, and I have known many. I often say that this is not an easy world. Unfortunately selfishness win over common sense, often making it difficult the road that would do the right system for the benefit of all.
Italians must change their mindset if they want to start. We should begin by creating school immediately, with the new generation, a new way of thinking. Someone will smile now reading my words, has no importance, I believe in what I write seriously, utopistico the phenomenon.
Despite this, My greatest satisfaction is to have created over time a dense network of relationships based on the estimation, on respect and friendship. This to me is of paramount importance, build relationships based on good reputation, especially in a world like that eno, whose foundations are based on the passions.
• Bloggers and journalists, much debated topic. What do you think?
I recently wrote on the blog, especially because I feel pulled in because.
Bloggers and journalists, passion and profession, emotion and rationality. Two roles whose writings have a very different emotional. I insist that, whatever, both can help by communicating, each in their own way, the land and its productions. The key thing for me is consistency, which must be maintained by not follow the waves of convenience of the moment.
• World blogger: chi lo ama, chi lo odia, and who uses. But who cares really the communication made by bloggers? And because?
The passion that drove many bloggers in this direction, compresa me, did emerge as their emotional charge combined with digital communications, can be of help in these difficult times that we are living, to the territory that the productions. A phenomenon already in vogue for years abroad. Many have understood, and have been inspired.
The world of bloggers is not always easy, there are those who act according to the passion, and there are those who get carried away by easy targets. Anyway, only pertains to the readers who followed forward in time, the passion that has helped many of us get through tough times.
The only sore point in this context, is that too many take advantage of this passion without acknowledging the intellectual commitment and not just, devoting time and energy to this task whose importance has been recognized by the same local institutions.
