ABOUT ME

I'm a circus artist, performing juggling. I often have to travel around europe or worldwide for work, study or training and I'm always interested in meeting new people. I like to find new places to live for a while where I can find a good training space where I can research my technique.
I love to know new people and to learn languages and cultures!

PHILOSOPHY

Any day I don't learn something new is a wasted day to me (but I take care this never happens)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

First time I entered the Seibukan Dojo in Nobeoka.

Seeing the clean sky in the night, on a mountain, filled with billions of stars, never saw that sky in the city.

Sunset on the sea horizon in Sicily.
