About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Listening, talking, tasting, playing, learning, maybe teaching. Certainly enjoying every day and discovering the worlds.

ABOUT ME

I love knowledge and ideas, I'm hungry to understand the world. I do like meeting new people to learn new perspectives.
I'm an open minded person who likes to meet people from different cultures and to share laughs, parties but also serious conversations.

PHILOSOPHY

Just some quotes:
- Sean capaces de sentir en lo más profundo cualquier injusticia, cometida contra cualquiera, en cualquier parte del mundo, pués es la cualidad más linda de un revolucionario. (E. Guevara)
- Great warrior. Wars not make one great (Yoda)
- Vivo, sono partigiano. Perciò odio chi non parteggia, odio gli indifferenti. (A. Gramsci)
- La storia insegna, ma non ha scolari. (A. Gramsci)
- It is undesirable to believe a preposition when there is no ground whatever for supposing it true. (B. Russell)
- The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt. (B. Russell)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time... like tears in rain... Time to die. (Roy Batty)

I like joking, unfortunately i haven't been out of this planet but i would like that :)

"Amazing Thing Done/Seen", I would like to talk about this topic with the future tense and not the past one.

Teach, Learn, Share

Learn: I would like to learn everything
Teach: I am not able to teach
Share: I can try to share all my passions
