Damien Hamilton Wood
Sourcer, Google Inc.
I'm South African / Italian citizen, born in Pretoria, one of the capitals of South Africa.
I grew up in a different world that is today South Africa, though in many aspects I feel this is better. I moved to Italy January of 2001 and lived in Florence for little over 5 years. In this time I met my wonderful Fiance. After 2 more years I decided to join her in Zurich - Switzerland and have been here for just more than 2 years.
I started working very young, 13 to be precise, at a SPAR mini mart. It was my choice as I was fed up with not having any pocket money so I begged my greek friend who family owned the store to give me a weekend job as a packer. He did and that's when my working days began. Since then I have always worked and been involved in many different areas and experienced vast career opportunities.
I'm a simple person looking for simple things in life. Sun, water, love..... the rest is merely a result of how much I want the simple stuff.
Looking forward to chatting with you
