Musica, film e libri

If I want to introduce me a little more I have to talk about art, which is a big part of my life.

I really love forms of art which plays with images and esthectics. I pratice photography, take a look at my instagram account if you desire to :

How could I speak about images and esthectics whitout speaking about cinema ? I love reaching all movies of great cineast, my favorites one: Scorcesse, Finch, Ozon and Tarantino.

I also love a lot literature. This is amazing the power a book can have. I love philosophical and psychological books throught which I learn new ideas and concepts, and novels as a way of mentally travelling.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

The 25th of July 2019 I arrived at Llica ! Here ended my crossing of the Salar de Uyuni, after 6 days of loneliness in the desert. I started from Colchani and 140 km further I arrive at Llica, the other side of the desert. At 20 I am the youngest to cross the biggest salt desert of the world by walking alone and in total autonomy.

During this expedition full autonomy meant having no supplies given to me during the crossing and no communication devices either (no balise, tracker, satelite phone). This walk through Uyuni was realized with the only strength of my legs, the ressources in my bagpack (20L of water and 6 days of food) as well as a gps to know my daily position and a compass to ensure that I keep the right direction. Beyond this I had no possibilities of communication with the rest of the world and no food supplies were given to me during the walk. A true walk alone with nature.

Insegna, impara, condividi
