ABOUT ME

I like to describe myself as a very likeable, friendly lively and lighthearted person: I love making friends, having fun, exploring new places and getting to know new people. One thing is sure: the word "boredom" does not exist in my vocabulary, as well as the word "lazyness", after all hey, I'm Italian! But don't get misled: I like being a responsible person and I therefore tend to avoid problems.
I was born and raised in Tuscany, therefore I have a strong feel for politeness, hospitality, fairness, correctness, order, respect, recycling, parties... and wine. And parties again. Gosh, I come from a place called Versilia, where clubs may outnumber the houses people live in, and parties do definitely outnumber any other event.
I am absolutely open minded, but i strongly dissent on the use of drugs.
I'm sort of a fitness buff, which means that I don't smoke and that you'd rarely see me drink. Besides, I live and let live, and if you wish to taste the best delicacies in town, I'll know where to take you :)
I like sharing knowledge; if I can learn anything from you, please let me know all I can. Besides, I'm kinda hyperactive, and I love doing fun stuff. That's why I prefer fun, spur of the moment people.

PHILOSOPHY

Live so that if everyone behaved like you, this planet would be a paradise itself; live so that when your children think of fairness and integrity, they think of you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing is a great means to have fun with nice people: I'm always here waiting for some cool person to keep up the good vibe!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've started a few years ago; in the high school I attended, we had a Schühlerausstauch program with other students from a school in Bayern, Germany. Whatever it was called, it was definitely couchsurfing, though none of us at the time had ever in mind such an idea. I hosted 3 times and was hosted 4 times: it was so fun I could not stop! after school though, I moved so many times in so many different cities that i could not host again. I really would like to start again!

Interests

I love doing sports, and I'm a competitive Powerlifter. I'm also quite interested in photography, cinema, cooking, history and I tend to crave to speak as many foreign languages as possible.

Music, Movies, and Books

Boy do I love music. I love any kind of music, you name it! Jazz, Blues, Metal (the heavier the better), Rock, Pop, Dance, Techno, House, Classical, Opera, Prog... I said ANY kind! When it comes to books I'm pickier... I'm not quite into novels, for I'd rather sit down and relax with a philosophical essay or a book about politics or history than read about a love story or about an adventure... As to films, I adore them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most exciting things I've done are: running a marathon, bungee jumping, going rafting, mountain climbing, shooting, parachuting, horse riding, and telling my exes they were wrong.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach Languages, or history, or how to shoot, how to run or... Anything I know!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Эх, дороги, пыль да туман,
Холода, тревоги да степной бурьян...
Снег ли ветер, вспомним, друзья,
Нам дороги эти позабыть нельзя.
