CURRENT MISSION

writing interesting stories and tips for my Rome travel & event blog www.buzzinrome.com !

ABOUT ME

realistic, trouble-solver. lazy sometimes but reactive.
can be slow when I have plenty of time, superfast when I have very little time :-)
I am not very diplomatic: tend to see black and white, not too many shades of grey
I like to know about your culture, the country you come from and so on

PHILOSOPHY

never postpone good experiences :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

nearly killed the Italian minister Emma Bonino with my cameraman :-) The video was shown on Italy's daily comic show "Striscia la notizia"

going with my family through Berlin wall's checkpoint Charlie, on a Colombian diplomatic car (a Trabant...). What a long wait before the Soviet guards let us go, but then we saw and had dinner in East Berlin, the communist world! In a cold December night during Cold War, 1986
