CURRENT MISSION

Nothing less than enlightenment for me and my fellow man

ABOUT ME

Hi there I am Italian, but I lived both in Australia for ten years working as an English teacher, and in Japan for six, where I learned the language and the culture.

In my spare time in Japan I led a small group of farming interested people on a permaculture project called Kansha Projecto (Project of Gratitude https://www.facebook.com/KanshaProjecto/info check out the link to the blog).

I am here in Europe again because I am doing a Master Degree in Environmental Science and in Human Ecology. Life for me is the journey of self-awareness, there is nothing more I aim for than to understand this amazing game of life I have come to be part of, and I think traveling and meeting other creatures of all sorts has really helped me in this.

There is also clearly an urgent need for inner and outer change. Some authors call this the enlightenment of our second modernity. Clearly we must reconsider the manner in which we relate to each other, the ethics of our consumption, and the meaning of nature. I look forward meeting you fellow Earthling, and deepen our inner and outer understanding of the world today, and life in its infinite play.

PHILOSOPHY

Stay present, remain focused on the real, thread as lightly on this earth as possible. Kindness, not force, will or reason, is the most powerful tool of personal and other change I know.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did a solo journey by bicycle from Indonesia to Japan over seven months. I went through so many places in the silence of my pedalling. Hard to describe the silent ecstasy within!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have been a traveler of the heart mind and spirit for as long as I can remember so I can look into you and feed you back your own self through many lenses. All learning is a wonderful opportunity to be in relation to oneself and others.
