ABOUT ME

I left my job and Italy in November 2012, I've crossed the Atlantic Ocean on a sailing boat and then I lived on Caribbeans on the boat for one year.
When I back I did a part of Eastern Europe by hitchhiking and also opened a new cozy hostel in Slovakia (Nitra), managed an hotel in an ancient farm in South of Italy and then crossed the Atlantic Ocean again.
Now I'm back to Italy (Milan) and back to my old job (web developer). Waiting to leave everything again :-P

PHILOSOPHY

To laugh is to risk appearing a fool,
To weep is to risk being called sentimental
To reach out to another is to risk involvement,
To expose feelings is to risk showing your true self
To place your ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk being called naive,
To love is to risk not being loved in return,
To hope is to risk despair,
To try is to risk to failure.
But risks must be taken because the greatest risk in life is to risk nothing.
The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing is nothing.
He may avoid suffering and sorrow,
But he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or live.
Chained by his certitude, he is a slave who has forfeited his freedom.
Only a person who risks is truly free.
