About Me

CURRENT MISSION

avoiding downtime!

ABOUT ME

I'm able to be formal but I actually don't like it.People say that I'm quite funny and deep ... and I think it's true but I prefer others to talk about me instead.
I've been living in Taranto and Brindisi for 6 months when I was in the Military Navy.
I've been living in Bolzano/Bozen for 6 months while I was studying IT ... and I liked it a lot.
I've lived in London for almost two years and I didn't love it.
I've no biases but many preferences.

I like to swim, I love the sea and to scuba diving. I love the snow too and snowboarding but unfortunately I can't do it often.

People think that I'm quite wild and with a lot of patience. I love the wild nature but I love technology too ... sounds like a paradox .... and it actually is. I like so much to have fun with my friends but I need to spend some time alone.

I love music ... especially drums and percussions and I used to play drums quite seriously for more than ten years. I gave up and I started again after 4 years but my skill is gone.....definitely. :(
I live in Prague since May 2007 where I work as a *NIX system administrator.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Until now I'm actively hosting people in my place in Prague, Czech Republic. Maybe in the future I'll contribute more.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Until now I've had very good experiences couchsurfing and hosting people. I host more than surf at the moment because I've not time to travel as I wish. But it's also a very good occasion to meet interesting people and to share life experiences.
