I love understanding the world as much I love admitting that reality is questionable.
On the serious side, a scientist (that's what I do) who would like to be a poet.
On the fun side, I try to enjoy the moment as much as possible.

PHILOSOPHY

Be brave, for the earth only endures.

CURRENT MISSION

Meet, learn, share, and enjoy the time with my human fellows.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

1) Did a 10-day long Vipassana meditation retreat. No talking, just meditation 10 hours a day. Interesting both spiritually and socially speaking. Hope I'll do it again soon.

2) Lost my balance for a few seconds after taking a picture of friends at the edge of a 50 meter-high cliff, back to the void...interesting feeling !

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

Smiles, long stories, listening, cooking tips.
Ideas for books, films, music, ideas for ideas...
Setting up links between people, concepts and places, hopefully in unexpected settings.
