About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Food & wine lover, dreamer, sommelier, traveler, soul-searching in Asia right now.

ABOUT ME

I am an Italian guy that just got back from ten years living abroad in UK and Sweden; right now backpacking in South East Asia soul searching. I am sociable, open-mind, optimistic guy, able of serving a decent hot meal to my guests :-) Insanely passionate about food and wines, I tend to read quite a lot of books of several different genders (mainly historical, fictional, cooking and travel guides), and I enjoy good dinners with nice conversations.

PHILOSOPHY

We live only once, it would be stupid to stand still and not enjoy it.

"You know the Greeks didn't write obituaries. They only asked one question after a man died: "Did he have passion?""
