I love Kubrick movies, Wes Anderson photography and Darren Aronofsky cuts and sounds

I am a passionate reader, among the others I love “The unbearable lightness of being” by Kundera and “La casa in collina” by Pavese

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While sailing in the middle of lake Geneva with a friend, on a windy day, our boat capsized and the mast of the boat broke. My friend and I had to sail back with no one around, but we managed to survive :)
