For all these years, in summer as in winter, it cleaned the paths always easy to make the crossing of the island, has taken up the plastic from the beaches to save the ecosystem of flora and fauna that, otherwise, would now seriously compromised; has meant that tourists, more or less educated, to fall in love of this place, respecting it thanks to his explanations, his stories, his ability to make people understand that the world will remain a nice place to live only if we deal with on a daily basis and we do not abandon. Who was there knows! Who will bring with him was the poetry of a meeting out of time and everyday life, a reminder not only of light and color of the beach and the sea, but the very essence of nature, of that very beautiful light and that fantastic and unique color.

About 10 years ago the old owners of Budelli have stopped paying the Guardian salary Mauro, dissociating himself as him and the wonderful Budelli. But he stayed! Despite everything, Mauro is left to preserve this incredible piece of paradise! His choice was the island of Budelli, not the money. Its history, its lifestyle, its very essence had become inextricably linked to the Island. Nothing had to separate them. And Mauro continued its vital work, subsisting thanks to a small pension, the help of friends and the immense love for nature.

Today the island of Budelli was acquired by the State and the statements of the President of the Ente Parco Maddalena seem prodromal expulsion of his keeper. But who, better than the one who did it for 25 years, he can take care of Rosa Beach and Budelli? We do not want Mauro leave the Island because we think first of all that if Budelli remained a wonder of nature is also thanks to him, and secondly because we are convinced that the park has everything to gain from his presence: Mauro lives in Budelli from a quarter century, knows every plant and every rock, every tree and every animal species, recognizes the colors and scents with the wind and changing of the seasons. Mauro is known by philosophers, famous artists, journalists, powerful and rich men, but is primarily known by simple men, who love Sardinia and its beautiful sea. Whether one or the other, the guardian of Budelli has remained in the heart of every man who has trampled, 25 years now, his unforgettable land.

If you know Mauro, if you've read about him, if you believe in him or if you believe in us that we want to help him ... If only you love nature, sign this petition numerous! We do not want to argue with anyone! Just make us feel democratically and peacefully by those who might realize too late that what can not and must not be lost! We would like Mauro continued to take care of the island and we would like to meet him again at the beginning of the path between the junipers, to welcome us, as in all these years has made!

Sunrises, sunsets. And then the wind whipping the archipelago. And modeling granite but also the minds of the inhabitants. But He is always there, alone and for 25 years, to foreign entities service that they wanted the guardian of that "good things" and then abandoned him to his fate only inhabitant, hermit, modern Robinson Crusoe, not so much far from land, but far away from "civilization." And today, Mauro Morandi should leave this place that has elected to his lonely home and knows its every stone, every bush, every animal, every sudden change of light. In summer and winter, he has cleaned up the trails, collected the plastic that the sea port and leaves, made in order to preserve the ecosystem. He has enchanted tourists, through his stories, who did not speak to men stories, but the stories of landscapes, of winds, of animals, out of time and into the majestic colors of nature. About 10 years ago when the old owners of Budelli have stopped paying the salary to Mauro, dissociating himself as him and the wonderful Budelli, he did not hesitate a moment. E 'was! Despite everything, it remained to safeguard this incredible piece of paradise!



He wanted to go in Polynesia, Mauro: "After years of political struggle in school and out, I resigned myself to the idea that this company was not for me. In five we bought a catamaran and go to Magdalena to work with tourists and pay debts with banks. Our intention was to go in Polynesia, but the coral islands we found them around the corner. A Budelli. I stayed there. And after a few years, the University of Sassari found that the composition of the Budelli pink beach contained high percentage of calcium carbonate, the only island in the Mediterranean Sea. Nearly than there is in coral islands where I wanted to go. A scientific blessing to my desire".

The story of Mauro, his life, his very identity are now inextricably linked to the island. Mauro has continued his work as if nothing had changed, subsisting thanks to a small pension, the help of friends and immense love for the island.

"The winters were spent wandering around the sea, or land when the weather did not allow it. And so I made my most beautiful discoveries: the ancient race of 1600 home, the lookouts camouflaged among the rocks, and then I learned to recognize the various plants, helped by the readings. And in moments of rest I devoted myself to the reading of the greatest philosophers and writers loved. The summer season, however I have spent welcoming tourists who want to know the fool who lives in solitude. I speak to them of beauty, love for nature, the peculiarity of the pink beach, unique in the Mediterranean. And then, I build objects, chairs, sculptures ... ".

Today, with the purchase of Budelli from the Archipelago Park, the future of Mauro seems to be sealed. But we, we are signing the petition on Change.org many, we think that Mauro has to stay on the island because it is he too became "honorary" an indispensable resource for the salvation of Budelli dall'arrembaggio of human civilization.

"I thought I was dying in Budelli. It would have been nice to me cremated in my island. A Budelli that has kept me sane throughout the 28 years of stay here. Because this has happened: I never got sick in Budelli. "

We do not abandon MAURO MORANDI! ... WE DO we ARE LIKELY TO CONTINUE ITS WORK IN THE ISLAND OF INCREDIBLE BUDELLI SIGNING THIS PETITION:
