About Me

CURRENT MISSION

know different cultures

ABOUT ME

I'm a 26-year-old Italian telecommunication engineer from Milan.
As host,I'm respectful of the place where I am, I don't consider it as a hotel room, this means I'm glad to help you in domestic affairs.
I'm a funny guy, I can speak Italian,English,Spanish and French so communication won't be a problem!
This is a brief description, we can talk about the rest ;)

PHILOSOPHY

live and let live.
One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself.
The only obvious thing is the obviousness does not exist.
La vita é una questione di pezzi di carta e di pezzi merda.
Creiamo un futuro semplice per un passato imperfetto.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In Argentina I met a bunch of guys on couchsurfing and we could organize a week trip around Salta, moreover with a really nice and great guide who was really good in describing the places we passed by!
We started in 5 ending in 15 more or less and we had really good time together, it was definitely worth doing it :D

Interests

I like listening to music, going out with friends to have a drink and chat. I like travelling and as I studied abroad I have friends all over Europe so I like to visit them to know new cultures with a native person.
About sports, I swim and play soccer (not a professional levels), a couple of times a week a I do that.
I read mainly novels, usually not the most recent, often only few people know the authors of the books i read. Same for cinema.

Music, Movies, and Books

rock,mainly 70's (led zeppelin, doors..); electronic; some Italian (De Andrè, Battiato,Litfiba); pop 80's.
I love depeche mode.
I read different kind of books,usually not the recent ones, for example I like Oscar Wilde. In general my favourite authors are Milan Kundera and Chuck Palahniuk (crazy crazy guy).
Often I buy used old books in the streets. I like to consider a book as a living thing, which passes from hand to hand arriving finally to me. Destiny!

About movies I do not like so much love stories and classical american blockbuster, even if it is pleasure watching them in the cinema with friends from time to time. As directors I really like Woody Allen and Tarantino.
Anyway for me, when you say cinema you say Robert De Niro, then all the others. I saw all of his movies (maybe not all the most recent as he makes 4-5 per year now :P).
I also have two favorite comic duos, directly linked to my childhood: Bud Spencer & Terence Hill and Stan Lauren & Oliver Hardy. I really know their movies by my heart.
I'm sure i forget something but we can talk about this ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Erasmus in Barcelona but unfortunately i do not remember everything :D

Teach, Learn, Share

To me travel means learn, so I'm willing to learn something new from a culture different then mine, everytime I travel.
I'm italian and i like cooking most for friends than for me only, i can show you something ;)
Obviously, i can teach some italian words.
And I can roll my ear.
