About Me

"Don't worry, be happy"

ABOUT ME

I am a student of tourism and land development. Traveling is the thing that makes me feel really alive.
I'm a voluntary tour guide for children. I specialize in the place of my beautiful city.
I think discover different cultures and see new places is the best thing you can do in life.
I am a backpacker. I travel with my backpack (called Snoopy) and I love to walk in the city. Sometimes I prefer to get me 10 kilometers walk rather than take public transportation, I like to get lost in the streets of the city looking at everything. Flowers on the balconies, the old people walking around the city.

I love animal, all type. Dog, cat, bird, fish, bull, elephant and dinosaurs ( :D :D). Sometimes (because she live with my parents) I have a dog at home called Jackie, she is my little girl. And every time I return from a trip, see she do a "party back home" is a really great joy

I don't smoke, but I love drink when I chatting with someone....and all be come better if there is good music in the background!!

Interests

Travelling, travelling, travelling!!

Apart from the jokes, I love music. Without it I could't live. I listen to all genres, it depends on my mood. I can wake up one morning and want to listen to The Prodigy and after lunch want to listen Bob Dylan or the Rolling Stones or Italian music.
Lately I really like the indie: I'm listening to a lot Damien Rice, Ben Howard, Mumford & Sons, Of Monsters and Man, Bon Iver, M83, Daughter.

My other passion is poetry.
I prefer it to the novels, because I think it's very difficult to describe in a few lines of feelings.
I also published 2 books of poems

Then the extreme sports are an adrenaline junkie, whatever I do fear is a challenge to overcome.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach : As a good Italian, I am a very good cook, I can teach you the secrets to cook pasta in Italian style. :D
I can also teach you a few words in Italian, or ways to travel cheap.

Learn : I want to learn as much as possible about the culture that meeting. Learn a few words of the language and improve my english and my spanish.
Then also learn what they like to do to the person I am staying or that I host.

Share : As mentioned above, I love cooking. So certainly I would cook for the people I meet a nice classic Italian dinner :)
