Travel information

I am currently

Activities i am interested in:

From Italy, lived in Uk, left job and home to travel solo for a period: Morocco, Egypt, Emirates, India, Oman, Turkey, Greece and Bulgaria. I'll spend summer back home in Italy

Description

I try to move out of the comfort zone to stay courious, positive, open minded and keep dreaming, looking to discover new cultures and feel alive.
By travelling, I'm becoming minimalist and I'm trying to slow down, time is the most valuable thing. The more I grow the more I feel the need to go back to the countryside, for a more natural way of living.
I like travelling, road cycling, watching motorsport (also my job), walking on the nature, the sea and warm weather, cooking, reading and vintage markets.

More details about your skills

I'm a flexible and reliable person who adapts well to different environment and people, I have good manual skills and practicality, I'm a composite technician in F1 and I've lived and worked in the countryside in my family vineyards for years, driving tractors, growing plants and looking after small animals, cutting wood and all the outside jobs.
I like playing with children, my nephew grew up with us, staying in the nature most of the time (but also doing homeworks and baking together).
I like spending time in the kitchen and I learnt how to do jams, sauces, veg and fruit in jar.
I'm not a big hi tech fun, but I know the basics (I use to be an engineer), I can paint and do few electrics things and most of the indoor and outdoor diy.

Age

34

What else ...

I'm a lot less serious than what my description tells!
I'm a simple and humil guy, even if I moved to another country to challenge myself, find the confidence and getting the dream job, for then leaving to solo travelling in 8 countries in 4 months..!
I'm kind, friendly and I try to spread positivity and help to people. I would like to start practicing meditation and yoga, I feel I can work on the spiritual side and energy.
I started late to move and travel but now I can't stop! I would like to try vanlife at some point and slowly going back to the countrisyde.
