ABOUT ME
I'm a world scavenger. Started travelling since I was young and I've decided I won't stop. I love the feeling of having friends all around the world and I do all my best trying to learn the habits of the place I'm relocating to (including learning the language of course).
PHILOSOPHY
My life is based on quotes, from Tennesse Williams to Jorge Luis Borges, from Jack Kerouak to Charles Bukowski, from Gabriel García Marquez to Pablo Neruda.
Interests
Well, I have a few addictions, Music, Cinema and Sports above all. Then I would say Literature, Travelling (obvious), Geography, Social life and History. I know it doesn't sound great, but I like Politics too, boooo!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
1. I've seen Michael Jackson live when I was 9(Rome), and I saw him flying over the stage thanks to a rocket placed inside his backpack. I know nobody cares, but I freaked out as it was early '90's.
2. I travelled East Europe for a month with 3 friends by car. We got stuck at the border between Greece and Turkey for almost 6 hours as Turkish authorities thought we were some kind of terrorist, since the property ID of the car wasn't under the name of none of us. You can't even imagine how hard is to get a Fax sent from Italy to the Turkish border in the middle of August.
3. I went inside a Catholic Church in Tijuana(Mexico) while at the gate there was a mysterious man holding an M-16 , ready to shoot at any other criminal from a different cartel, once again I freaked out.
