CURRENT MISSION

To find what I'm looking for. What am I looking for? To find what to look for.

ABOUT ME

I happen to solve other people's problems, less good at solving mine.
I can't help but interact with strangers.
Half histrionic, half intellectual.
Outgoing and sociable, terrible at self-descriptions involving lists.

PHILOSOPHY

"L'ironia è il sale della vita."

"Paciencia, y barajar."

"It's always better on holiday / So much better on holiday / That's why we only work when / We need the money"

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning things from others and by myself.
I can share what I am, because I want to know what you are. Enrich my humanity, so I can do the same.
I guess I can teach Italian and Spanish, maybe random, silly and interesting ideas. Dunno!
