Favourite music: every kind of music that  fits with my  feelings.

Story: i first met canoeing when i was 21 , then i started going in the slalom and i run in competitions in 1994.

In 2003 i was in the national team, i went to pre world cup in Austria and in 2005 at freestyle world cup in Australia, but my biggest passion is explore and discover the world with my kayak.

Why you kayak:

I`ve paddled in so many different places, from Australia, Siberia, Canada, Arizona, California, Santo Domingo, Argentina, Chile, Norway, everywhere in Europe and even running in canoa competitions, my final goal is still to maintain myself and my body as fluid as the water of the river, always new, always fresh, always unattached, without any trace behind me, really following the cosmic order, as mobile as the flow of life. That`s true freedom!
