About Me
I'm a 35 years old Italian, born in Naples. I've been living in London, Barcelona, Milan and Rome over the past 15 years. I currently live between Naples and London were my girlfriend has been living for 18 years.
My main passions are traveling, meeting new extraordinary people and vintage fashion. I especially like Italian vintage sunglasses from the 60' till the 80's. I've set up a website were I trade my collection of shades of which I possess more than a thousand. (www.italianretro.com)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Been inside the Colosseum the night of the new millennium (01/01/2000) together with my closest friends. After midnight, wile we've been celebrating the new year's eve in the Roman streets, we managed to sneak inside. It was unforgettable to go around the ruins of a place that was built 2000 years before.
This year for the first time of my life I've been at Burning Man Festival in the desert of Nevada. It was the most unbelievable place I've ever been!! there are no words to describe this experience!
