Just relocated to Milan after seven years spent mostly in the US, Scotland and Greece on teaching and research jobs in Classics - now working in IT as a language expert.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

To make our lives richer, instead of hotel companies.

Interessi

Languages, ancient and modern. Swimming. Singing folk songs, singing in choirs. Cycling. Some commercial, some classical, some folk music. More into gigs than clubs, but I end up dancing shirtless in both. Trying to avoid buying clothes.
Oh, yes, and ~~~the beach~~~.

Musica, film e libri

The first things that come to my mind. But I tend to forget...

MUS ~ Bad classical guitarist. Sort of tenor in choirs. I liked Stereolab, Khanate, Portishead, NCCP, Graziella Di Prospero, Can, The Knife, Mina, Haydn - the str. quartets, Chopin - the scherzos, Monteverdi -- Causa Sui, Wooden Shjips.

MOV ~ The city of lost children, Happiness, Death Proof, Encounters at the end of the world, Suspiria...

BKS ~ In search of lost time, The Odyssey, Harry Potter, Markaris crime novels [and in Italian: Hilarotragoedia, La Bufera, Menzogna e sortilegio], cook books and grammars... finishing Anna Karenina.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

Paving cobblestone paths as a volunteer, free camping and skinny dipping in Greece!

Insegna, impara, condividi

Learn and practice foreign languages, try new recipes - and if you want any Ancient Greek or Latin (??!!), I'm happy to help you.
And obviously, I'm up for Italian conversations, cooking and singing (I have no idea of Italian football though, be warned).

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

I can cook, if you dare take the risk.
