Ruavista - Signs of the City


"I firmly believe that one can learn much and distract oneself with all the details from our daily environment which, because of tiredness, lack of time or from force of habit, pass unnoticed.

The street is rich of these details. It's a permanent field of discoveries and experiments. It's the place of the unforeseen and of the mixture. It's a superposition in time and space of personal life stories. It's a crazy density of images, sounds and smells.

Ruavista seeks to organize the streets wealth and to share it with the greatest number of people worldwide and strives to promote a new form of urban tourism based upon visiting ordinary streets and paying attention to details rather than famous spots and beautiful architecture.

Above all, my goal is to arouse your curiosity and feed mine."
