He could write a book …
Anyone who travels for business has all kinds of experiences. People are flabbergasted by Agostino Campanielli’s stories about his travels. For instance, he once had to be evacuated from his hotel in a rubber dinghy due to flooding. In China, it took him more than an hour to explain that he would like a cup of coffee. In Brazil, he was spontaneously invited to a birthday party as if he were already a new member of the family, even though he had only just met the people. In Venezuela, he wasn’t allowed to leave his hotel because it was too dangerous. He was then given a bodyguard without further ado. In Mexico, he met an Italian who originally comes from the same village in southern Italy as he does. The village only has 800 inhabitants. The world really is a small place.
What are his hobbies? Peace and quiet, no stress, just chilling out
However, things aren’t so quiet when Agostino Campanielli engages in his favourite hobby – clay pigeon shooting. He is an active member of the Bern hunting club and enjoys the sport and companionship within the club. And what else? Family, sport and cooking. Yes, he enjoys cooking, for example for his family, – recently an 8 kg turkey: stuffed and beautifully crisp. He also enjoys spending his free time doing quieter activities. Completely stress-free; just chilling occasionally.
