About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the World

ABOUT ME

I am a easy going person who likes to laugh and have fun. I like going out with friends to pubs and clubs but I don’t like too noisy places.
My friends say that I am crazy and outgoing.
I love cooking (and eating!), my mum gave me a special talent for that! I usually make special food when I have guests, while when I am alone I prepare healthy food. Of course my preferred cuisine is Italian but I love also Japanese and Indian.
I love travelling. I have been All around Europe, Mexico Egypt, Tunisia, Japan and China. The place I liked most is Japan. I like Asia: I like crowded and noisy places, skyscrapers and good food and I am attracted by culture very different to mine.

PHILOSOPHY

Take it easy! Everyone is different and in life you will find people who will like and people who you won't. Respect everybody the world is full of interesting and fantastic people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Sci-fi and thrillers, my favourite film is Old Boy (who have seen it?).
Is a film set in Korea which treat the theme of the revenge.
I liked the setting and the brilliant plot, unique of its kind. And in the end you don't know who is really the good guy and the bed one. I strongly recommend it!

I also know dialogues from Full Metal Jacket by heart :) Gunnery Sergeant Hartman is the best character the humankind has ever produced!

I like all kind of music except house or similar (that is noise not music).
My favourite song is Amico (friend) by Renato Zero. Probably nobody except Italians would know this song!
It talks about friendship and how good friends will remain with you through all your life in spite of all the problems you may encounter.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing the Fuji Mountain. At night. Alone. With only my mobile as a flash-light! I was thinking never again never again never again but now I have a funny story to tell :)
