ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty chilled out person and like to think I'm easy to get along with. I enjoy interacting with all kinds of people and am passionate about being a positive force in society. I love music and books.

PHILOSOPHY

Challenging relations of oppression and domination in society.

Insegna, impara, condividi

Some of my favourite conversations as a traveller have been with people who have told me about the political and social context of their country. I am always interested in hearing about that and understanding international linkages and similarities in different places around the world.
