ABOUT ME

Hello everybody,
I'm Marco and I live in Ferrara, Italy.

I adore the Nature and everything connected to it, I do cycling, I like fishing, and try to be an amateur photographer.

The best travel I did in my live was in the summer of 2007. Me and another guy went by bike (followed by his brother with a van) from Ferrara (Italy) to Nordkapp (Norway), cycling 45 days for a whole trip of 3.789 km, crossing Italy, Austria, Germany, Czech Republic, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Finland and Norway. That was such an extraordinary experience that it's almost impossible to me to describe it, I just wanna say that after 6 years I think about it every single day, getting touched every time.

PHILOSOPHY

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it.
Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion.
Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare.
Impossible is potential.
Impossible is temporary.
IMPOSSIBLE IS NOTHING."

Interests

MUSIC (metal-core, nu-metal, rock...).
TRAVELS
SPORTS (cyclism, football, basketball...)

Music, Movies, and Books

MOVIES: 300, V for Vendetta... damn, this list would be endless...

MUSIC: from my "rock-roots", like Queen and Aerosmith, to my "metal-present": Hatebreed, Slipknot, Full Blown Chaos, Lamb of God, KoRn, As I Lay Dying, Chimaira, Heaven Shall Burn, Unearth, Walls of Jericho, DevilDriver, All That Remains... damn, this list would be even more bottomless that the movies one. :-D
Just let me say that, in my life, I've seen more than 100 different bands on over 70 concerts... may it be enough?

BOOKS: I think that the book that changed my life and the way I reason through it is the famous "On the origin of species" by Sir. Charles Darwin... everything else I read is straightly depending on it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

An amazing thing I did in my life... the travel by bike from Italy to Nordkapp.

An amazing thing I saw in my life... I can't give just one answer, I need three: Dolomites, Lappland and Iceland!
