CURRENT MISSION

Io sono uno skianto io mi drogo quel tanto per campare contento e restare uno skianto

ABOUT ME

I'm currently a PhD student in International Relations.
I had been working for Ngos (and travelling extensively) in Africa and America Latina, and lived in Chile, Nicaragua, Mozambique and Ethiopia. Two years ago me and my girlfriend (now she has become my wife!) decided to come back to Italy, right in the middle of the crisis, in order to experience the amazing life of an exotic country...and we haven't escaped yet!
Love to travel and to meet new people,I am friendly and open minded, guess also honest and loyal.

Intereses

Love to listen to music and go to gigs (I used to play the bass...when I was young!), I have collected more than 3.000 albums from different genres, mainly rock and psychedelic music (mostly 70ies, soul and funk, rocksteady and dub, afrobeat and traditional african music, italian composers, free jazz and modern symphonies. I also like theatre (but not musical pleaaaaaase!), going to exhibitions, visit new places and let me being amazed by every new vibe I can feel. Since I'm italian...I definitely love to have dinner together with friends, having a good glass of wine and enjoying a friendly chat until late.
