ABOUT ME
Well, that's the hardest question. I always find trouble in describing myself, but I'll try my best. Born in wrong age, wrong country. I would like to live in a tree house or a wagon, I hate pigeons and in general birds (put the blame on Alfred Hitchock), love imaginary creatures, Nick Cave's nose, Dylan's lyrics, anything French, saying "Bazinga" all the time without any particular reason... Ok that's enough! I know I haven't any talent in decribing people, especially myself!
PHILOSOPHY
The way we look at the world is the way we really are. See it from a fair garden and everything looks cheerful. Climb to a higher plateau and you'll see plunder and murder. Truth and beauty are in the eye of the beholder. I stopped trying to figure everything out a long time ago.
Live long and prosper!

This life is so short! Let's take advantage of every opportunity given to us to discover and experience both wonderful and perhaps not so wonderful things!
