About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel to broaden my horizons

ABOUT ME

"Madder than a box of frogs": this was the last description about me i had from a friend... hope he meant it as a compliment...

PHILOSOPHY

I think we've got only one life, so we should do many things as possible, and always do what we want to do. Never have somebody who decides for us, always use our own brain. Not listen to tv, trash programs, politics... they only want to manipulate our minds. Be free.
"The big brother is watching you"
"Disinformation is a weapon of mass destruction"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mmmm...There are many: swam semi-naked and drunk with my friends in an august night... hitch-hiked in the Irish mountains... Went on my own to Manchester to see the Pearl Jam concert and then didn't know how to go back home...Stopped an unknown person in a street of Oslo asking how to say "I hate you" in Norwegian because i had to tell it to my nice host after have waited for him more than 1 hour in the rain :D ahahahah!!!Met 2 brazilian guys and decided, right away, to follow them in their tour in south Italy renting a fiat 500! Been kicked out from a restaurant in Egypt... :) Etc...

Teach, Learn, Share

Always share everything:
I think generosity is not a matter of money, but a matter of heart.
As I like sharing, I don't like people who only like to take. My house is not a hotel: if you think about coming just to sleep on my sofa and eat my food, please don't contact me, it means we have absolutely 2 different opinions of this community (sorry if I write this, but it means it happened to me before)

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Czech Republic, Egypt, France, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Mexico, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Thailand, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In

Egypt, Italy, United Kingdom
