Maurizio, born the 4th son of his Italian immigrant parents; who moved to England in the 1960s. At the age of 15, he’d already left home. He lived for two years with a surrogate family. At 17, he was living in his first apartment. Working and studying at the same time. His first job was a French polisher. By the age of 19, he moved to Paignton Devon. Working different jobs to get by. At 22, he moved back to Naples and then to Corsica where he lived and worked for two years. After various voyages between Italy, England and Corsica, he moved to the south of France in 1994, working on a campsite for two years before entering as bag loader at Marseille Airport. In 2013, Maurizio moved to Bayern, Germany, where he lived and worked for five years before moving back to France, in 2018. With over 20 years in the airline business, he is now head of Ground Operations. But his true passion, since he was a boy, is writing.
