ABOUT ME
Mostly I've been told to be a chilled and sociable person who really enjoys harmony and the little pleasures of life.
I like sharing opinions, tastes and ideas. I think I'm pretty open-minded and adapt myself quite well in the most diverse situations.
PHILOSOPHY
"Consider well the seed that gave you birth: you were not made to live your lives as brutes, but to be followers of virtue and knowledge." Inferno, Canto XXVI: Ulysses

Music, Movies, and Books
Cinema: Kubrick, W. Allen, Jeunet, Fatih Akin, Coen brothers, italian neorealism, german expressionism. Love mostly tragicomic, noir and bittersweet movies.
Music: I pretty much listen to everything which is original. My favourite genres are rock and electro.
Readings: to tickle my fantasy I'd read Wilde, Murakami and Kafka. To teach myself about life I'd choose Bertrand Russell, Oliver Sacks, Tiziano Terzani and Eckhart Tolle.
Furthermore, I like essays about politics, sociology, psychology and science (especially quantum physics).
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When, as a child, I recognize my first constellation in the sky, the Orion.

I can teach stars hopping (in the sky with diamonds) and how to cook a good risotto or pizza :)
