One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working as Scuba diver around the globe, hitchhiking through half Australia, traveling around South East Asia and India for 5 months, living in Vietnam for a year, starting my video production company, a lot of wild camping, having a baby with my lovely Sara!

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to learn from the most absurd and diverse experiences, I like to share knowledge with people from all the world to improve myself and to understand how different civilizations are evolving in our time.
I want to learn and discover how people are living in big cities and in the countryside, especially in those countries where the differences between rich and poor are bigger.
To deeply understand on witch basis is funded our richness and what is happening to traditional cultures around the world during the Globalization Era, I decided to take a look with my own eyes.
