CURRENT MISSION

Finding Utopia & re-construct The Tower of Babel

ABOUT ME

"I am bored is a useless thing to say. You live in a great,big,vast world that you have seen none percent of." Louis C.K.

I eat, drink, breath, think, walk, sing & dance, enjoy art, zzzz(sleeping), dictionaries, music, cooking, onomatopoeia, sharing, friendships, neologisms, movies, diving into other cultures and blending within, books, talking nonsense and talking sense, meeting people, seeing places, doing things...
Sometimes I do more things than other times...either way I always manage to have fun and learn something new.

PHILOSOPHY

As Bill Hicks said: we're all one consciousness (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vX1CvW38cHA)also from a scientific point of view(http://www.ted.com/talks/vs_ramachandran_the_neurons_that_shaped_civilization.html); and not only "it's just a ride", it's a very good one if you make it so, sharing it with others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host when I can but I'm always up for a tour around my hood, grab some coffee, gelato or whatever my host fancy in this beauteous city, while I'm still here. I live in the west side of town, as they often say: the west is the best.
Then I'll make sure to keep on doing the same in my next hometown.

Interests

Infinity and soap bubbles.
Seriously, I'm interested in anything, name something and I'm keen in learning its logic, its whys and hows. From neuroscience to nail polish.
They say ignorance is a bliss, I disagree. Ignorance can be an deadly disease for our souls and can deeply arm communication between the human communities. Being able to understand each other and see different points of view is the real bliss.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Wood chopping-sheep shearing competition in Golden Bay NZ, yes that's merging into the local culture. Prague's tea in autumn. Voluntarily getting lost in NY.

Teach, Learn, Share

I play guitar,I'm not Joe Satriany but I'm getting there, just give me few more decades...since then I guess I can teach you a C Major Scale and the initial riff of White Rabbit and some other entertaining tunes...
Of course I do cook Italian-style with some fusion influences and I have a secret trick for making any, and I mean any, baked cake off the top of my head.

I can also teach you how to do old school photography, the one which involves films, analog cameras, patience, love and chemicals.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Czech Republic, Egypt, France, Germany, Israel, Japan, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New Zealand, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom
