About me
Yes, I am on a career break, that is kind of becoming my job now. And no, I don’t carry a Tux while travelling, I just thought the pic would go well with the theme..

Andrea Di Tonto, born in Italy, spent 7 years in Dublin, Ireland, until.. one day decided to leave a good job in a well known internet company, good friends, loved people and loved pubs, and travel a bit.
After a while I discovered, like many others, that without knowing it I was actually Flashpacking. I was intrigued and fascinated by this concept, so I started researching it. The Tux in the Backpack is one of the results.
I am now a fully conscious Flashpacker, that keeps researching the subject while applying it at the same time. My itineraries, places visited and adventures are on the my little personal blog, Mcsilly’s Adventures.
