About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to get (people, myself) involved in constructive discussions about a sustainable future for all!

ABOUT ME

I am a 27 years old almost graduated MSc student interested in almost anything! I am mostly interested in good conversations, meeting people that I din't know before, getting to know different cultures, doing ad hoc activities, biking, sports, sustainable development and constructive discussions about life in all its different aspects! and in drinking beer!

PHILOSOPHY

It's us having to mastermind and implement the new world order in order to achieve real sustainability: based on communities and both human-human as human-environment reciprocal relations.
