CURRENT MISSION

Finding a way to visit the whole world in one life

ABOUT ME

UPDATE!

Just back from UK.. I did the description below while I was in UK, last year. I haven't updated this section yet but i promise i will do as soon as possible!

My name is Daniele and currently i live in UK, Cranfield to be precise. I moved here last September to start my MSc course.

Until a few months ago I lived in Florence. Even if i was born in Tuscany, my parents are from Calabria, the homeland of chili peppers!! If you are lucky and brave, maybe you'll have the chance to try it!

My last period has been quite animated: i've left Florence for Turin and, after a "two months work thesis" there, i came back and graduated last December. On February a book brought me in India where i stayed for twenty days. In Florence again since March, I've started my specialization in Mechanical Engineering.

I'm outgoing and positive thinker: i like to laugh and i'm always trying to find good aspects in things. I think I'm open minded, i like discovering different cultures, enjoying each time different foods (to take time for eating is one of my passion).
I occasionally work in a vintage shop where i serve drinks during events.. and i bring my friends to eat and drink for free!
Nothing can enrich more than travelling!
Often the best things are the ones that happens when you haven't planned them yet.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't waste your time, don't look at the world as if you were not part of it; live it, do something.

Interests

Of course i love travelling!
I like so much listening to the music and going to concerts: rock, jazz, classic, some type of electronic but i'm always open to listen something new!
I love playing sports; i need to move myself! I've done judo for many years, then i've started playing football and last month i've started judo again.
Bike is my favourite means of transport: ecologic, economic and healty! No, i don't sell bikes, but i am in love with them. I'm a passionate of vintage motorcycles.
I like reading and speaking about politics and everything happens around me.
I've played oboe; i would absolutely learn guitar and harmonica during next years.
I like doing photos because i think they are a way to stop a particular moment; and when you look at one of them, it start a fall of remembrance.
I definitely would have more time!
