CURRENT MISSION

To make time go by perfectly: not so slowly that i notice it and not so fast that i miss it.

ABOUT ME

Play some music, drink some beer, take some photos.

Well, i'm really open and curious with other cultures, and i love the feeling of discovering something about the world that i'd never even heard about before, it really thrills me.

I like to think myself as an easy-going person, sometimes i'm a little shy and sometimes i'm really talkative and stuff, well, i can be both.

i've thought of being an illustrator, then a musician, then a designer, but right now i'm going towards photography (for about 3 years right now).

here's my flickr, check out what i do:

actually now i'm posting my photos mostly on facebook so my friends can see it and comment, well, you can find me there too. Look for my name, it's the only one.

PHILOSOPHY

"Be drunk!

You have to be always drunk.
That's all there is to it-it's the only way.
So as not to feel the horrible burden of time that breaks your back and bends you to the earth, you have to be continually drunk.

But on what?
Wine, poetry or virtue, as you wish.

But be drunk."

Baudelaire

that's all.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing that i noticed is that it doesn't matter where you go, people are the same. I mean, they're different, of course...but, you know, the same.

Slept on the Sahara desert, and saw the most beautiful stars and night of my life. Rode a dromedary!

Saw Naples underground, which is amazing. And Venice Carnival. And Brazil's carnival!

I've been to a concentration camp in Berlin, called Sachsenhausen..creepy.
