CURRENT MISSION

Traveling all around the world and find happiness!

ABOUT ME

"I am convinced the only people worthy of consideration in this world are the unusual ones. For the common folks are like the leaves of a tree, and live and die unnoticed."
L. Frank Baum

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live. I think everybody has the right to look for his/her own happiness, but always respecting other's.

Carpe diem! (Sceize the day!). It's much likely that you won't be given a second chance in the future!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since now, I've hosted many people coming from different countries all around the world and not only through Couch Surfing; I like being useful and make other people feel comfortable and welcomed during their stay in a foreign country.
I've been hosted only once in Madrid for a night and it was super fun!!

Interests

I'm interested in people, cultures, lands, languages, history, politics. I like listening to people telling stories about their way of living, about their life experiences. I think there's always something you can learn from the others. Always.

I love practising activities in the open air like jogging, going to the beach, going on trips or camping; I really love nature, even though I'm not a real fan of insects! I get transfixed in front of the myriads of nuances of a sunset sky, by the sound of falling rain on leaves or of the wind's blowing through them; I get hypnotized by watching the waves of the sea or the dancing flames of a bonfire.

I love all kinds of arts and strolling around ancient towns and getting lost (which happens pretty easily with me); I like meeting people and get in contact with their habits, their folklore, their ideas about life and sharing different points of view, even if sometimes it can be difficult to deeply understand things. I love spontaneity and genuineness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once in the Philippines I was assaulted by a couple of devilish monkeys: they wanted my chocolate bar. At any costs. And they managed to.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some Italian language and some good Italian recipes; in exchange I'd love learning some other languages' typical expression or preparing some easy nice food :)
