Overview
About Me
Maximum stay: 2 nights, normally, 1 guest maybe 2 (read "my home" section please).
A bit of world by my eyes: https://www.instagram.com/ancestrali.sentieri/
I study literature in Firenze but my hometown is in the south of Italy.
I lived in Budapest to discover the "Old middle Europe"; I would like host hungarian people to have a conversation or news about this country. So if you are Hungarian feel free to contact me (hangout or hospitality).
In my free time doing mountain hiking, i'm a member of CAI ( Italian Alpine Club ) and a guide.
I love travel, nature and outdoor life.
I don't buy a lot of food at supermarket because I cultivate healthy foods in my garden. I produce with my family a very good wine. Nero D'Avola (In Calabria, not in Firenze).
I'm friendly and more curious and I think that travel are a good synthesis of live, more fast.
There was always more in the world than man could see, walked they ever so slowly; they will see it no better for going fast
John Ruskin
Si possono percorrere milioni di chilometri in una sola vita senza mai scalfire la superficie dei luoghi, né imparare nulla delle genti appena sfiorate. Il senso del viaggio sta nel fermarsi ad ascoltare chiunque abbia una storia da raccontare.
Rubén Blades
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on CS because in this community many people have ideas similar to mine.
I think that meet people of a country is the best way to get the culture and the traditions of the place.
I prefer host people.
This is a fantastic opportunity for meet new friends.
CS is based on ideal of liberty and sharing; I like this.
Interests
I can cook, italian food and in particular the specialties of my district.
Or if you are brave could you try my fusion dishes.
I read and write a lot and love poetry and theater. Unfortunately in this time I do not read, I am in a strange mental state. (Sorry literature)

Music, Movies, and Books
I love all literature in particular classic books
My favourite writers are H. Hesse, Conan Doyle and I. Asimov but I read a lot of travel writing for example Luis Sepulveda, Jack Kerouac, Tiziano Terzani.
The character of Corto Maltese for me is a spiritual guide for their lifestyle and their behaviour.
I love cinema and my favourite director is Quentin Tarantino. In this period I'm watching Hungarian and central European cinema to enter in the cultural system of this area.
