CURRENT MISSION

searching for a truth further than my own, continuously...

ABOUT ME

Well...I am a quite spontaneous and passionate person. I am basically an unflagging curious: always up to know and experience as much as I can. Respect and tolerance are definitely part of my personality because I simply love diversity.

Born and grew up in Sicily, I moved in Bologna, (a university centre with students from all over the world), to enroll at the law school (though everyone told me I did't look like a law student :)).

In september 2007 I needed a period off from my studies, so I decided to spend 6 months working in London in order to pratice my english and to experience living abroad. I had a very good time and made a lot of friends there. After that I also feel more aware of what makes me an "italian", so I try to emphasize the good parts of it and to repress the bad ones :)

During the progression of my college career I also had the great opportunity to spend a quarter at University of California Santa Cruz. No need to teel you it was an amazing experience!

I moved to Rome a few months ago to work for the Italian Banking Association. I live in the very heart of the Eternal City and indeed it is priceless.

I had stopped couchsurfing years ago, while still a student in Bologna, but I recently decided to start couchsurfing again.

Who knows what's next...

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to persuade the skeptics that it's the best way to travel. Practicing respect and confidence toward new and different people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I heard about couchsurfing through friends who were already in and I thought it was a great idea to sign up. So far I've always had great experiences with couchsurfing.

Interests

I love travelling, discovering different cultures and meeting new people, going to the cinema or to live music concerts, partying and hunging out at clubs and bars, cooking for my guest or host. I am also interested in photography, literature, politics and a lot of stuff more
