  No one is prophet in their homeland (Luke 4, 24), and that includes me ;) Recent trips as a lecturer, examiner, crit panel reviewer and advisory on curricula development for work leading Schools of Architecture such as Lund, Politecnico di Milano and the UNESCO Chair for Architecture in Mantova, Italy.  Alvar Aalto, the great finish architect famously named his boat "Nemo Propheta in Patria", this reflected his own state of existence, if not objectively, at least subjectively in his own state of mind.  Enjoy, Guillermo   BTW also Matteo, Marco e Giovanni sited the frase.  Guillermo Aranda-Mena 2023
