About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live and let live

ABOUT ME

I take life with a pinch of salt: there are just a few things that are really important and those are the ones I try to have always in sight. All the rest are like artificial layers of make up, from time to time they can be fun, but in general they are completely redundant and a distraction from my pursuits in life.

PHILOSOPHY

Body, Mind, Spirit

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1) Sunsets and Sunrises anywhere in the world.
2) Being able to communicate with a group of people during a whole day without sharing any common language. They rented a boat and invited me to go sailing with them for a few hours in the lake, and then invited me to their home. We exchanged address and wrote each other for years.
