CURRENT MISSION

to explore the world as much before I get old

ABOUT ME

as a child of mixed Eurasian descent, I learned to love the world twice as much. I love meeting other cultures through other people, and if forced to be at home, through all other means.
Someone once called me a man of the world. That was the nicest complement I had in a long time (but then, he was Italian ;)

PHILOSOPHY

never give up your dreams and be confident about yourself in the world. Listen to your body and to life, that is the most important lesson I learned (so far :) )

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been in a Japanese bullet train once. I loved all of it. I guess I love the moment of travelling even more than arriving at a destination.
