Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Stopping to work 40 hours a week... even if I'm realizing that this could mean that I had to work even more ...
ABOUT ME
It would be very sad if this box would be able to contain "all about me".
I grow up in Italy (Torino) and from May 2011 to May 2015 I lived in Cologne. I decided to come here to live with my girlfriend, so nothing about these boring better job opportunities ...
My girlfriend and me are planning an alternative way of life. I already spent a few years in the office so it's time to start to work and to make something serious.
Since 2013 we are beekeeper and in May 2015 we moved to Aremberg, in the Eifel. We bought there an old house with a big garten and we're renewing it to open a Cafe/Bistro/Pension. We will try to bring in the Eifel the alpine way of life ...
PHILOSOPHY
Why to own a car if you could reach your destination by foot, by bicycle or using the public transport?
You're not able to do it? Change your destination or get trained! :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'd like to meet people, we live in a very small village now so it would be very nice to have the opportunity to listen to some new stories!

Music, Movies, and Books
I like different kind of film, it depends from the mood of the moment. Recently I'm interested in documentary, did you already seen "Home", "More then honey" or "Alphabet"?
I listen to different kind of music and I like live concert. If you live in Germany consider to become a member of http://twotickets.de to discover the music scene of your place.
I like essay books. At the moment I'm interested in books about beekeeping, the Eifel as well as the esoteric one. Started to read Eckart Tolle a few days ago.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Beekeeping.
Ski touring.
Hiking through the Corsica along the GR20 ("fra li monti") from Calenzana to Conca
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach Italian and I'd like to improve my German as well as recover my English. German is currently my first foreign language but I still have plenty of room to improve it. Mark Twin said that a live is too short to learn German, I think he was right! :)
