CURRENT MISSION

And now something completely different.....

ABOUT ME

I love Calvin and Hobbes and the Monty Python, John Gleese is definitely my hero! Van Morrison is real music and then BLUES, BLUES, BLUES!
There is nothing better than drinking and eating with friends, somewhere in the countryside, and maybe to go for a walk, straight after, being still half drunk and in a chattering mood!
I love to hike `cause it allows me to see the landscape changing slowly. I love the sea and the forests, to read books, to meet new nice people.
I want to have a family and many kids.
It`s obvious that I love to travel like all of you! Even if I tried to settle down a couple of times I ended up with the backpack on my shoulder.
Ry Cooder used to sing:
...cause once you get the roaming fever,
you`ll never gonna settle down, boy!...
Probably that`s my case or simply I didn`t find my chair yet, as we say back home!
About travelling,I love Latin America, its rhythm and its confusion. I really believe that Latin America is the next century political lab. I wrote my thesis on Bolivia and the the struggles for water in Cochabamba, believe it`s impressive for they`re trying to do using a bottom-up approach. I know they`re a mess....but, it`s love!
For good or bad luck, my mother used to feed me with latin american literature or at least that`s what I used to pick from her library. My first book ever has been " Un viejo que leia historias de amor", an old man who read love romances I guess. Luis Sepulveda is the writer. At the time I finished " Love in the time of cholera" of Gabriel Garcia Marquez I was sixteen and my emotional side was already and definitely compromised.
I love North America and its folk music in particular! Including Delta blues, rhythm and blues, everything almost even if I had some hard times with jazz cause sometimes I really don`t understand it. What are they talking about? I ask my self! Life`s simpler than that! You know?
Italy area and its deep-rooted culture is my soul and I love it. But I also love the "folk, I repeat folk, north american idea" of travelling and living. Woody Guthrie used to sing:
.......
Nobody living can ever stop me,
As I go walking that freedom highway;
Nodody living can ever make me turn back,
This land was made for you and me.
.......
Many times in these words I found my self.

I think, this is enough, for the moment!
