About Me

Skier, climber, mountain enthusiast, generally fond of everything that is related with nature, rangelands, trees and how to cut them down with a chainsaw. I'm currently working on a research project as a PhD student in Alpine Ecology.
Passionate about live music, slam poetry, craft beer. Into sustainable lifestyle and healthy food.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed an ice fall...and read my poems in public, in a Poetry Slam, but don't ask me to do the second thing again!

Teach, Learn, Share

History, languages, traditions, songs...I want to learn all that I can as long as my neurons are still young and (mostly) receptive. Except for maths, I'm not good at it.

I can teach the arcane secrets of the most renowned italian dishes (sounds impressive but basically it's all about not overcooking your pasta). And some botanical stuff many people are probably not interested in.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Croatia, England, France, Italy, Monaco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Peru, Poland, Switzerland, United States
