My name is Federico and i was born somewhere in Italy. I had a very normal childhood, doing what all the other kids were doing: planning to become Power Rangers.
…
When the dream faded i devoted myself to scientific studies, managing to pour my big imagination into side-activities like hypocondriasis, a tragic vision of the future, and the invention of excuses to avoid doing sports (a lot of them still work! I’m a genius).
Once i realized that the careers of tarot reader, screenwriter and king of Burkina Faso weren’t really coming my way i decided to come to Berlin and started working in online marketing, just to be sure i get my place in the world hell.

I can not get over the pink & the dolphin in the toilet. It’s not cute, it’s nightmarish.
I am so glad you took one for the team & ventured in so no one else ever needs to.
I’m glad you appreaciated it, Ebe, especially considering that I will never be able to sit on the toilet again without having the creeps

omg. a true nightmare.
I’m so sorry you had to endure that, but it made for an entertaining read :)
Xx.
I know, I’m a hero, right?
I had to read this post again, it was an unforgettable experience.
I agree, I can’t believe we survived it!
Hi Fede, I just found your blog…I think your post is hilarious! I remember seeing the exhibition but I didn’t go, as the whole experience of a totally pink world, would scare and scar me!
I know Victoria, it was indeed scary, but someone had to made the sacrifice and document all those horrors ;-P
