Mauro Morandi – update

The “hermit” of the Sardinian island of Budelli has long been pressured by national park authorities to vacate the island, where he has been the sole inhabitant for over thirty years. But the threat of eviction has finally forced him to admit: “I have given up the fight,” which is the title of this Guardian (UK) update. Morandi says he will leave by the end of April. But he is only moving to another uninhabited island nearby.
