ABOUT ME
Greetings! .. here is something about me...
I was born in Rome (Italy) within a wonderful Italian family.
I studied Economics at University in Rome and I moved to Pompeii (it belongs to World Heritage List by Unesco) for two years as an City manager assistant.
It was been incredible and challenging to follow the management activities regarding an old city stopped on 79 A.D.
During this period I took a Master degree in Economics and Management Cultural Heritage and afterwards I joined the magic world of Management Consulting.
I worked for two global consulting companies; the last one permitted me to meet my wonderful wife. :)
I share everything with her: my life, my travels and all the future.
And regarding my wife, Antonia.. She is very typical Italian girl.. so touchy but really smart and clever.
A huge list of things bind us together: overall traveling, lifestyle, vision and a little bit of argue..
I forget.. she is an engineer and she comes from Southern Italy as well..
Friends describe us as extremely friendly, open minded human being, respectful and considerate person.
There are three things that we love to do more in our life: travelling, meeting new people, learning about new cultures and ourselves. As soon as we have time we book a flight to go to places where we have never been, because it makes us feel alive.
We decided to get out of our comfort zone and to try to experience and endeavor rather than watching the world spinning just only from our own window.
" ..what we get from the adventure is just sheer joy, and joy, after all, is the end of life. We don't live to eat and make money. We eat and make money to be able to enjoy life. That is what life means, and that is what life is for.." (Ben Saunders)
PHILOSOPHY
It is not never too late to start the pursuit of happiness and share it with others throughout the path.
