About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Starting my Yoga business

ABOUT ME

Always wanted to be a rockstar, but then I started to study physics...big mistake!!
Born and raised in Italy, came to Santiago as exchange student and eventually got adopted by galicians. I am laid back, friendly, nice, ironic and eager to know the world

PHILOSOPHY

If we wait for our time, we will be dead

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most recent and outstanding thing I did was travelling 4700 km on Route 66 all by myself. Took a lot of planning, but it was worth it. Apart from that, I have fond memories of my solo trip to Texas, New Year's Eve in Florida, my "desert session" in Almeria, some ski free-rides in the alps...and of course my 5 meter head-down fall climbing...ouch :S

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to climb, ski, how to make a mean tiramisú, italian, spanish, something about meteorology, trivias about rock history and, last but not least.... how to open a bottle of champagne with a sword
I think I can learn a little from everyone, no matter what it is
We can share a night out, a trip, a climb, or a motorcycle ride

Countries I’ve Visited

Finland, France, Greece, Ireland, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
