luigi calzone

so, i was in australia few years back and decided to play a little alter ego drinking night. this means that you decide on a character and plays it thru out the night. as i was in the land down under i could choose whichever character and they will never pick up on the acting…

back to the story, the chosen alter ego was simple – italian with the most ridiculous name of luigi (i was still new to this alter ego drinking night so i did not have a last name for the character). as i was walking from bar to bar with my two friends the character picked up additional features such as job, place of birth, work and even a last name…(i was pretty drunk and this one girl asked for my last name – first thing that came to mind was calzone thinking this is so silly italian that it will be a dead giveaway BUT the girl’s reaction was “oh my god, this is so italian!” – WOW!!! i love OZies!)

later on that night we ended up in some dive bar where everyone was drunk and few american girls took the offer and joined us for few last drinks. i wont get into details as it is not appropriate but i have to say it was a great ending to a funny night and gave me a great last memory of the country.

oh, on a last note, i spoke italian thruout the night but the fact is that i only know 2 words in the language. just to show you can be whoever you want with just a little bit of confidence and few pints of beer.

ciao,
muk
