CURRENT MISSION

Surviving the return to London.

ABOUT ME

I love exploring the world, travelling, getting to know, cultures, ideas, thoughts.
I love meeting new people and I believe everyone is inspiring and has an amazing story to share.

I used to travel a lot by hitchhiking, staying with couchsurfers or with people I meet on the street - there is no better way to really get to know about the place than through its people; I have little interest in hostel tourism and visiting with a guidebook in hand, while staying isolated from the local reality.

Recently I had calmed down though, after some bad experiences hitchhiking, a backbone injury that doesnt let me carry a big backpack and after my parents turned 60 and they started looking a bit old and fragile and I don't feel like taking so many risks anymore, because it started to feel selfish.

I'm a big fan of urban sports: climbing roofs, trees, phoneboots, racing in shopping carts, tubesurfing.

I have always lived in the city and I can't imagine any other life but I love open spaces, mountains, forests. I feel most alive when I am in nature.

PHILOSOPHY

Personal action towards environmental and social justice and sustainability. I try to minimize negative impact my life has on other people and the environment, through my decisions, purchases and non-purchases. And hopefully one day through an amazing social enterprise.
