    In 1918, the young figurine maker Giuseppe Magi was born in Mediavalle del Serchio, a mountainous area in northern Tuscany, has just landed in Helsinki, Finland, after adventures and wanderings throughout Europe. Exactly one hundred years later, a group of teenage students from Finland, Ireland and Spain, accompanied by Italian high school students from Mediavalle del Serchio, from the Higher Institute of Education in Barga (Lucca), visit the Museo della Figurina di Gesso e dell'Emigrazione (Coreglia Antelminelli, Lucca, Tuscany) a few kilometers away from the town where Giuseppe Magi was born.
