3 MONTHS EUROTRIP

So as everybody knows I can't stop myself in a place for longer, that's why after just a month in Italy I left home again, this time with my car, the unstoppable Fiestino, and I went further north in the chilling Europe!! I went in Venezia first to pick up the big Pierone and with him we visited first our friend Marco in Brescia which have now a new life and more things to take care than first we met him!! Then we passed thru Austria in Innsbruck and Munich in Germany and we get Berlin where we spent good days with my jap-german friend Nils, made of cold wind and yummy kebabs.... Then we went in Amsterdam via Hannover to my friends place where of course we had great time with Giulia, Stefano and the best one and unforgettable CESARE!!!

After all those stops around Europe we finally get liege in Belgium and I spent there 2 relaxing and funny months with "Sangio" and his funny friends.... and Because Belgium is in the middle of Europe we had many chance to hangin' around central Europe such as Netherlands, Germany, Luxembourg and France, and I will never forget the heater broken while outside was snowing and the "pollution dome" around the lamp ;) the fucking Rai 1 channel, the "piscialo" sentence that made Piero crazy for it, the green peas in the freezer, the kitchen smell after cleaning, and the fucking global warming that we couldn't feel!!!

then last week I had to leave and I went thru France first in Paris where I met my cousin after probably more than 5 years and lately in Grenoble, on the French alps to visit Marlene where we had fun in the middle of snow and crazy freestyler!! and today gonna be my last day of this long car eurotrip, I went in San Marino and now I'm in Cesena where I met after almost 2 years Giovanni and finally I could get the famous Piadina that he always was talking about while we were together in Aussie and Vietnam... so tomorrow will be the last stop for me, ROME!! but I still have something in my mind...... stay tuned!

PS: I just want to say, Belgium is a really nice country to live, the only problem is just the weather...... =)

Back Home

I'm back home after one year spent around Australia and Asia...

Last year after the summer season I've left Italy with Lorenzo and Francesco, going first to Philippines where we met Anthony and Paolo and all together we had a great holiday around Manila and Boracay, one of the best ever...after it and a stopover in Bangkok we could get Australia. In Sydney, I've been there a couple of week, just the time to meet finally after long time Alessio and other friends, and then I went back in Mildura, working again at Morello's farm until get back in Xmas in Sydney where I had a great time with my friends!!

January and February I made good money again in Mildura with bloody eggplants, zucchini and cupsicums and in February I went back to Sydney to pick up my parents and travel with them all around New Zealand and a part of Australia between Melbourne and Sydney.... after all I went back for the 6th time in Mildura for a while and in April I left Australia from Darwin with Taka, Nils and Christof for travel from Singapore into Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur and Penang, then Thailand in Phi Phi island, Phuket, Koh Samui and Koh Phangan and up north into Laos and Cambodia, we were a good group and even if we had lost some friends on the way we had a good fun!!

I went back in Aussie in the end of may in Darwin where I've met Davide, AKA Mister Zeta and we decide to get a 4wd camper for travel to Cairns and we had a long trip into the desert under the law of Marcello aka gen. Badoglio!! In June we could get Port Douglas where I've been working as a pizza chef and I could enjoy the huge Italian community over there before going then in July to Korea first and Japan after where I had a great time with all my Japanese friends.... Left Tokyo in the end of august I went for a few days in London and now I'm here, back in 'shitaly' (as Piero call), looking for the next experience...

CHI STA FERMO E' UN FIGLIO DI PUTTANA !

Torno a scrivere in italiano sta volta perche voglio ringraziare la comunità italiana di Port Douglas, e tutti i ragazzi del kebab,dove non ostante la noia mortale di Port Douglas è stato grazie a questo gruppo che ci siamo divertiti,tra il macello per le partite della nazionale al casino alzato all'Iron bar, “er bar de fero” l'unico posto di tutta Port Douglas da dove non siamo stati cacciati, dalle fughe dagli sbirri ai macelli al Dejavu', tra le sedie sottratte al fresco ai materassi del "pappagallo pesce", ai vari furti che ognuno di noi compieva orgoglioso sui vari posti di lavoro, ai gun che sparivano un pò a tutti in spiaggia, allo shopping gentilmente offerto dall'improbabile "nuovo papa' americano"di Nico, le biciclette nuove, alle "gite" alle 2 di notte dentro al mantra,ai cellulari per telefonare gli amici in Italia, ai backpackers che ci offrivano gentilmente il loro cibo, è stato grazie a questo gruppo che la gente di Port Douglas ha iniziato ad apprezzare tutta la cultura italiana, un gran popò di santi,di ladri e di truffatori!!
come scordarsi allora le serate all'Iron, il karaoke iniziato con la bamba e finito con la società dei magnaccioni e i buttafuori che ci cacciavano dal palco,e i vari cori alzati ogni 2 minuti, le pizzette della bakery che le prime settimane facevano cagare a tutti e poi all'improvviso so diventate le meglio pizzette d'Australia (perche l'unica fonte di cibo in tutta Port Douglas) ,e poi il Coles con la donna più alta del mondo, la trans canadese thailandese che nessuno ha mai capito in realtà quante/i fossero e soprattutto cosa fossero, il tedesco che spunta dalla giungla per cacciarci dal parchetto alle 3 di notte e i “playmobil” che ci rompevano i coglioni e cacciavano via tutti.. che gran gruppo!!
bella allora per Paolo detto petto e Francesco dal kebab che ci hanno sempre sfamato, bella per quel treno de Davide, l'uomo dei 7 lavori contemporaneamente,a Francesco il fuggitivo che scappa dai sui debiti,a Ian lo chef a cui sono stati comprati addirittura i piatti solo per lui,a Niccolò il leone, con le sue fantastiche teorie,il suo inglese da oxford e i licenziamenti che colleziona a rota per essere il peggior dishwasher di tutta Port Douglas, a Filippo papa' droga per essere venuto da Perth a raccontarci le sue storie,a Nick il neoaustraliano da Velletri, l'uomo che aveva un coro per ogni occasione, a Mazzu con la sua divisa da lavoro che pareva un boyscout, a Matteo il gelataio di Singapore e Davide che lo e venuto a trovare direttamente da Trento per andarsi a perdere nel bosco coi casuari,a Alberto, Stefania, Valentina, Anna e Antuanne, i ragazzi del van arrivati direttamente da Perth, a Maria la sud tirolese e ovviamente la special guest direttamente da Cairns... BRONCO,con il coltello alla gola e le sue trichecorche che azzannano chi fa sci nautico alla IUGULAARE....
E ancora tutti i non italiani ma che parlavano italiano lo stesso o che sono stati obbligati a subire la nostra influenza come i mitici maltesi,Miguel, Piero,la strana coppia anglofrancese..
eravamo veramente troppi,spero di non essermi scordato nessuno..

bella rega', un saluto da ruttle con la maglietta perennemente infarinata...

E NON VI DIMENTICATE MAI CHE CHI STA FERMO E’ UN FIGLIO DI PUTTANA!!

Port Douglas

My Australian experience it's almost gone for the 2nd time in my life, next week I'm gonna leave this country from Cairns, next stop Osaka!!

 after I've been to Bangkok I went up to Laos and Cambodia and then travelling the desert by car from Darwin to Cairns with the crazy Davide AKA Mr zeta and general Marcello!! And now I'm in Port Douglas, north of Cairns, tropical shit again, working as a pizza chef in RUTTLE & HUM.... mamma mia!!

I feel happy for the next travel but even sad coz after 2 years in this country I feel like leaving home!!

But Asia is coming again, I'm looking forward for a great Moriota's trip!!!

Half way, Bangkok

After a few weeks travelling in South east Asia we get Bangkok, but during our trip we lost a few "tomodachi" .. the first was Benjamino, we lost him in Darwin because he had problem with Australian visa and he couldn't leave the country, and the second was Chris in Koh Phangan, for financial problem!!
Anyway we start our trip in Singapore, we went up to Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur and Penang island and, after crossing the border with Thai, we went on Phi Phi island where we met Andy, a nice welsh guy, but we lost him suddenly after just 2 days (we are easy to lose people), by the way I reckon Phi Phi is the best island that I've seen in Thailand!!
After we moved to Phuket for a couple of days and then straight to the island of Koh Samui, Koh Phangan and Koh Tao... and now we are in Bangkok, waiting for visa, yesterday we even met Lorenzo, Sho and Martin, and we are spending a good time together.....
next destination.. Laos and Cambodia!!

Time to travel... again!

Yo guys, finally it's time to travel, to visit something new, I've spent the last 7 months for Working, so it's time to spend my money and as Pierone will say "li spendo tutti"... actually I've already start travelling last month coz my parents come over here to visit me and we have been travelling all New Zealand and it was amazing, so I'm planning to going back there maybe next year!! after that I went back to Mildura, and it was the same shit as before, but i was happy to meet again all my friends and spend good time with them, speaking bullshit every day (which is really easy to do with Paolo and Moro san) and kill time with winning eleven and the buzzzzz...!! but the job in Mildura is over, at least for this season, so everybody are leaving and the hostel gonna get empty, except for Nigel! we are all separating, I'm in Melbourne actually, but tonight I'll go to Darwin and after travelling south east Asia for a couple of months with a few friends from Japan(Taka), France(Ben) and Germany(Nils), Paolo is going to travelling the east coast with Jan, May and Ronnie AKA number one, all from Hong Kong, he's going to get crazy coz everybody speaks cantonese, but he is in some way lucky coz everybody knows that of course cantonese sounds better than mandarine!!! and the other Francesco AKA Morosan must going to fruit picking again because he is of course always without money, good luck Morosan!!! about Lorenzo I don’t know exactly coz always when I ring him he got a different mind, last time he told me that he is going to Thai as well next month with a few Germans, after Nimbim of course!!! I hope for him he doesn’t change his mind again..... that's all, and hopefully one day we gonna meet all together again!!!

Here we are!!

Again back in the bloody Aussie outback, again in Mildura, again in the same hostel with the same job at Morello's farm!!!

finally I get back here, I still don’t understand why, I think to be crazy, this is my fourth time here.. Actually the situation is not so good, Mildura is under draught, so no water, no job, the hostel is empty, less than 20 persons, not so good for enjoy the life here and kill time after yob, but Morello it's really good, I work every day for picking zucchini, hard work but good money and good to see again all my friends here...the worst news is that the Setz is definitely closed, no more Friday night in there, but now the new nightlife pub become Doms, but is not the same things!!
