1. Lawyer by profession - dropped it to setup a web-design firm called ICON (www.icon.com.mt)
2. Live on a warm tiny island in the Med called MALTA (www.visitmalta.com) and miss the snow so much.
3. Crazy about photography. Practice martial arts to keep me sane. Swim 3KM once a week and run for 2KM.
4. Play guitar and love travelling. Would have liked to paint for a living but I turned out to be rather bad at that.
5. Very passionate about Italian food and good books. Recently bought a 400 year old house in Valletta and this became my 365 project.... I'm at it everyday ;)
Have now become officially addicted to FLICKR.

"I always loved pictures but the fist time I saw Gege’s photos on FB (quite a long time ago now) was the day I was so moved I fell in love with photography… He is a truly inspirational figure and I’ve been hooked up on his posts all this time because they have so much energy, creativity and passion you can never get enough… I owe this guy so much without him knowing it… thanks Gege =)"

"Gege's photostream is one that I look forward to weekly because I know I'm going to either be surprised, amazed, and/or usually inspired. His "eye" for photography is so unique, it inspires me to want to keep looking at simple, everyday objects differently, artistically. I especially like the contemplative expression on his portrait subjects, it makes you wonder what they're thinking. Great stuff Gege, keep it up!"

"Gege - a friend and a client, is one of the few i know that has a different approach to why we are all here... his perception of photography crosses the borders of most of us, me included, and is a very good example of spontaneous artistry. Keep it up Geg - you deserve more than a star for your work!!!
