About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I like to travel if I have opportunities to do it. Professionally I am interested in the field of tourism.

ABOUT ME

In the past I was animator and educator for children and teenager.
Long time ago..
I like smiling people. I would like to travel more.

I'am respectful and with a lot of patience.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm open-minded to meet new people and new ways of living, different cultures. Each person has a hidden treasure, and we should get it out.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

with my smile? And my confortable house. If I have time I can bring you to see our "Pulo", the biggest dolin carsic in Europe, the city center or Matera. In Altamura we have also 30.000 dinosaurs footprints.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

few experiences but all nice!

Interests

Now I don't have so much time for my hobbies: karate, cycling, swimming, Kiwido (poipoi), running, juggling, art-ballon, collect Italian stamp, but there is always time for red wine or beers with friends. I like meet new people of different cultures, to learn from them. I like beautiful people, smiling people. I like to party with fun people and good music.
I like photography, in fact sometimes help photographers in the wedding services.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ride through the forests of Mount Pollino and the "Angel flight" (volo dell'angelo) from one top a mountain to another in 2 minutes, tight with a rope.
Lost in the National Gallery in London, where most of the paintings are of Florentine artists.
Visit Romania more than my country.
The clubs and party in Novi Sad in Serbia.
To be volunteer at the wonderful rock music festival in Leeds (England - Yorkshire)a lot of good music, we slept in a tent for two weeks, under hard conditions.
The amazing work winter season in Canazei - Sud Tirol, young people, great​ slopes, nice parties.
To be pointed a gun by a policeman as I was taking back a cot from a carnival wagon after the end of the carnival event, while I was dressed as baby.
