I'm an Italian student of Law and I'm currently spending a semester abroad in Granada.

Although I guess is pleonastic to say, in a community like this, that I love to travel, I really love to do that. Doesn't matter the way of transportation: by train or by foot, boat or by bus, and least of all if I travel alone, with friends, girlfriend or simply wayfarer. I like to organize trips, to inform me on the places to visit and hear stories of travels.

The adjectives i heard more often when people describe me are: enthusiastic, positive and smiling. I like meeting new people and discovering new cultures. I love to compare different philosophies of life and habits, and I think I am open-minded and easygoing.

Interests

I like: adventure, Rome and the history of art, playing chess, spending time with my friends, parents and girlfriend, cooking, eating and discovering every day a different vegetarian recipe, Italian and Indian food and general street food, Sacher torte, watching movies and taking photographs, music and different genres of literature, walking, animals and nature. Long takes, pistachios, Duolingo

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I remained stacked with my car in a desert area in California, it was the month of August, midday, I had no signal at all, and just a big almost empty bottle of water.

I travelled across one of the world's most dangerous roads: the Zoji Pass, between Kashmir and Ladakh, the second highest pass in the Himalayan mountain range.

In northern Thailand I drove a scooter under a monsoon for like an hour, I almost lost my flight back home.

Enjoying a sunset in Rischikesh playing chess with a Baba on Gange river.

I slept on the Oslo's Opera House, under the Budapest Parliament, on Preikestolen, and in several random streets, stations and airports all around the Europe.

Singing the Hare Krishna Mantra with a group of hare krishna going around Mathura in a overcrowded rickshaw.

Brighton - Canterbury on the road.
