Overview
About Me
Traveling is like oxygen to me and therefore is mandatory.
I am a very friendly, outgoing and ultratalkative person: I can socialize with almost everything on earth. haha
I have a passion for writing: that's why I spend at least two hours per day writing. Actually, I am more into fiction writing but I hope I will soon get into journalism, writing articles, as my dream is to become a war correspondent.
A couple of years ago I had my first journey experience out of Europe. I was in Sri Lanka for one month, visiting around while volunteering together with an Italian osteopath.
I like reading, hiking and any sport I haven't tried yet. Someday I am going to start playing piano but that's not going to be in your apartment, don't sweat it! :D
Well, that's just a brief overview of myself ;)

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Michael Jackson, Bee Gees, Barbra Streisand, Frank Sinatra, Rod Stewart, Depeche Mode, Rolling Stones, Phil Collins; pretty much all out of 70s and 80s;
Oldies such as Edith Piaf, Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf and more; electronic bands influenced by hip-hop, funk, dub, reggae and jazz such as C2C, Chinese Man, Gramatik; downtempo and chill out music. I'm always looking for new stuff to listen to.

Books: any classic; reportage/journalistic/travelling stuff, literally essays.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I still haven't done neither one tenth of what I wish but it's on my list.
Let's say that the craziest thing 'till now is having plunged from a 5 meters waterfall in Sri Lanka trying not to break my neck... As you can see, I made it! :D
Teach, Learn, Share
