Made in Italy, molded at Miami Ad School Hamburg.
I’ve traveled to 31 countries and lived in 6 of them.
Italy grew me up and helped me understand who I want to be.
London gave me the first slap in the face in my early 20s.
Germany, and Miami Ad School, changed my life completely.
Vietnam gave me affordable beer and the freedom of accepting my own mistakes.
Tokyo, with its immensity, made me realise how small I am.
New York refined my armour and got me ready for the real world.
Are you my next life lesson?

If not, click here anyways, I’m always open to new friendships.
