I, Luca Merlini, am Dutch, 28 years old and live in Brazil, Campinas with my lovely wife. I met her while travelling through Thailand and decided to follow her home. In Brazil I worked as an independant English teacher, invested in hot startup called La Vita and started Truffls.com with my Brazilian business partner Dario Gargaglioni. He's 32, art director and lives with his wife and son in Campinas as well. He has developed many great web sites for companies like Johnson & Johnson, Nestle, Pepsi, Axe, Itau, etc.
