Lisa Qiu, my beloved and devoted groupie, will be covering the GR Tre Bicchieri event for this esteemed blog on March 3.
Lisa is a journalism major at NYU, so this is a big step in her nascent career. Let's see how she handles the pressure -- deadline, fact-checking, maintaining Objectivity in the face of much crass hucksterism, not to mention the beguilements of many handsome Italians. But she is wise for one so young. She will meet the challenge head on and with aplomb. By the way, one of the great things about having a blog is getting away with "aplomb" and "beguilements" and using too many adjectives. Don't let that go to your head, Lisa Qiu.
Lisa had the photo taken last year in China. It's nice to see how Maoist worker's clothes have evolved.

Have mercy!

"In bocca al lupo Lisa!" does that mean "I want to kiss a wolf named Lisa"? and in that case, wouldn't it be "lupa"?
