About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning French!

ABOUT ME

Sicilian of origin, now live between Milan and Marseille
Interest in spirituality and techniques of ecstasy (no drugs, though!)
Open minded and interested in meeting from all walks of life.
I like traveling and see different places and people - buy I hate being a tourist! I prefer hanging out with locals.

PHILOSOPHY

As somebody said, we are spiritual beings living human experiences, so I believe there's much beyond the material plane. I am a very open-minded and tolerant person (I'm only intolerant of intolerance: racism, homophobia, etc., I can't accept this).

Music, Movies, and Books

TV series, a lot of them (Sex and the City, True Blood, Game of Thrones, Dexter, Drop Dead Diva, Revenants, and many others!)

Neil Gaiman's Sandman. Promethea.

Fantasy/Sci-fi/horror books and movies in general

I read a lot, but mostly it's heavy stuff for my work (sociology, anthropology, cultural studies, critical studies, gender studies), so after my Foucault and Bordieu I need a little evasion :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walking on burning coals (a few times)
Conversing with my holy guarding angel
The Grand Canyon and Las Vegas (June 2013)

Teach, Learn, Share

I have very limited practical skills.
But I am well-versed in social science and western esotericism.
I read tarot.
