About Me

CURRENT MISSION

learn with the world

ABOUT ME

first of all: i think i'm energetic (this word is written at least 5 times in my references hahahaha). this energy is always feeded with pizza, music, movies, pizza, beers, friends, pizza and, obviously, trips and pizza.

i started my backpacking life many years ago. it was hard to click the buy buttom to have the tickets for my first "all by myself" trip to a place i've never been before. after this hard click, i started to be addicted to this life. and now addicted to make my mind fly with people travel histories.

to finish: i'm a lover of notebooks (not the eletronical, but that cute ones made with paper to make appointments of adventures).

PHILOSOPHY

you can never never say that you know a country if you don't have the deep contact with the people who make it exist. without this, you can only say "i passed by".
