About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Fights divisions! in the State of Mind borders don't exist

ABOUT ME (check my references I am the worst at talking about myself :)

I was lucky enough to study work and live in many places, in order: Brescia (IT) Bologna (IT), Louvain-La-Neuve (BE), Uppsala (SE), Groningen (NL), Osaka (JP), Rome (IT), Strasborug (FR), Delhi (IN), Thessaloniki (GR), Leiden (NL) and now Pristina. I like moving but I wouldn't mind to settle down for a while :)

But before moving anywhere I had my doubts...
After high school I was not so sure about what to do, travel helped. Of all existential questions I started asking myself the question: "where?" Asia was my passion and so I left. I soon discovered that I missed Europe to the same extent of Asia while I'm in Europe. I decided that I should not give up either, that no one should sacrifice a part of identity... so I ended up studying what I studied and working for what I work for: bringing people together, eliminate boundaries and get to see the world as it is, not divided, as it is in political maps, but united (and green!) as in the physical maps.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm part of the Universe, everything it is...there is just one single unique life, one life for everyone and everything, a life that we all share, a life that has it foundation at the very beginning of the whole thing and that one day will be over, we are a segment in between the two moments.
the meaning of life is .. Spoiler alert ;) .. the reduction of complexity, from the max chaos to the absolute unity in a process that involves the eliminations of everything that separate elements, me and you, Europe from Asia, us from nature!
