About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Walking in Italy and Europe, speaking about peace.

ABOUT ME

In Italy from 1994, I'm from Congo RD. I live and work in Reggio Emilia, the city of the "Parmigiano Reggiano" cheese, a city between Bologna and Milano. I'm an IT engineer.
Optimist, not sophisticated, I'm not complicated, I'm very simple and easy going and open minded ;-).
I like to travel, walk (this summer I did the Camino de Santiago de Compostela, Spain), meet new people, make new experiences, get to know the world and learn as much as possible!

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live,
Carpe diem
