I’m creating a project that’s gonna inspire kids to have a better future in Brazil, I want to show to them that they can do better, they can have a different lifestyle, it’s not gonna be only skateboard, we ll have art, cooking, music, english and other classes. We ll also work learning about food waste and environment, green and organic vegetables and fruits. We ll grow or own food in this place.

When I travel, I always bring, 

My skateboard. And some stones back home.

Best travel advice I can give is,

SMILE when you wake up. Don’t make plan for your day, get lost, find new spots and talk with different people, they have nice histories to tell. Don’t forget to respect the others culture and don’t be a turista, be local everywhere you go.

Best life advise I can give is, 

Feel free to do whatever you want to do, no one can tell you what you need to do.

Best travel memory you want to share?  

A boat tour in Antalya – Turkey with my girlfriend, we went to swim under the caves, we ate fresh fish on the boat, we met some new friends that bring us to the summer house and we spent some of the best days in Turkey with this friends.

When I do not skateboard I,

I paint all kind of things to meditation and relax.

My fitness program is,

Run,  push hard to get speed, jump the stairs, don’t land the trick, do it again.

When I get old I want to,

Have a backyard with a pool,  my kid and my friends skating on it, and my girl taking sun and drinking caipirinhas.

I would NEVER, 

EAT CHEESE!!!

Where do you stand & please comment with skateboarding in the olympics  ? 

Skateboard in the Olympics, doesn’t matter for me as a skater, Nyjah or some other kids it’s gonna win gold medal. But looking as a Professor, it’s gonna help in my project in Brazil with the kids, so it’s gonna be good because I have that as a excuse to make a new skatepark (skate school) in my city, and now the government can’t tell anything, It’s a olympic sport and they need to invest money on it.

I would like to see more of,

Real skateboard!!! Stop posting all your shit hard tricks all the time. HAVE FUN with your friends.

That one time where I was in jail because of,

I went to jail for two hours in Tallin – Estonia, because of baking in the hotel room. The boss of the police let us free after make us sign a paper saying,  “sorry, I smoke weed”. Next day he was watching us at Simple Session with his kids.

I should do more of,

I should fight more for my Italian passport so I can live in DK and not leave after 3 months every time.

My future looks like,  

A happy man with a project in Brazil for the kids, my Italian passport,  my backyard pool, and some money to live and not to survive.

I dream of, 

Getting a new skatepark in the city where I come from!

The book I currently read is,

Adultery (sometimes you have to lose yourself to discover who you are)  – Paulo Coelho ( Brazilian writer, translated from Portuguese to English by Margaret Jull and Zoe Perry).

The best travel I have been on, 

2008 when I first saw Copenhagen and changed my life.

On Netflix / youtube  I watch,  

Narcos on Netflix. I stopped watching Thrasher on youtube.

If I could change the world I would, 

I’m Working to make Skate Feliz happen and save some more Diego’s out of favelas.

Everybody should own a, 

Skateboard, if you don’t have money some other skaters ll give you beers and have fun with you the same as if you have.

The hobby I have, no one knows about is, 

Get lost in Cph where no one can find me.

I will never get rid of, 

My old closet full of stickers.

I would love to be in a movie with, 

Angelina Jolie, so I could kiss her big lips. hahahaha

Any regrets in life so far ? 

Not really, I just wanted to have more support to keep skating.

I currently follow (social media, instagram twitter, Facebook)

My friends, skateboard and some creative people.

Anything else,

Keep yourself strong in your mind, in your body, in your heart and in your soul.
