Beyond work

A bit about me

My name is Marco Moraschi and I am an electrical engineer.
My work revolves around energy and power systems, today in particular high-voltage testing of cables, but what truly fascinates me is the way ideas take shape: from intuition to design, until they become reality.

Writing, reading and gazing at the starry sky are the ways I nurture my curiosity. I believe that behind every discovery — technical or personal — there is always a story made of attempts, mistakes and small steps forward.

This space gathers notes and reflections: not absolute truths, but questions, journeys and visions. I write my articles in Italian, my native language.
If there is one thread that ties everything together, it is the conviction that simplicity and passion can truly make a difference.
