ABOUT ME

hi!
I'm Alessandro and i live in Prato, Tuscany.
I am an easy person who likes a tranquil life and the company of few selected people.
I am more a listener than a speaker but I do also like synthesis in life so you won't expect from me tedious conversations.
I am also a gay man with a beard.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to meet new people and share experiences as I am sometimes a too lazy person and miss the chance of knowing other people.

Interests

I love music very much. I played in a band till my 30's. Now i write and sing on my laptop having fun finding new melodies.

I also love reading but i must admit the time left for it is very few.. 20 books a year would be a good goal. Trying to keep up with that.
I am an old fashioned classic books amateur: Goethe, Tolstoj, Flaubert...

I love taking care of my housplants too (see my "houseplants" album) I have several of them though my house doesn't fit very well for plants so it is for me quite a challenge

• animals
• literature
• poetry
• architecture
• interior design
• wine
• technology
• movies
• cars
• music
• rivers
• mountains
• nudism
• naturism
• plants
• horror movies
• houseplants
