Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I want to experience as many different cultures as I possibly can. I intend to use Couch Surfing as a means to meet people and have a first-hand look at the local scene with new friends. I am not necessarily looking for a place to stay.
ABOUT ME
I am a clean, fit, non-smoker (cannot tolerate smoking, sorry!) My interests include scuba-diving, musical concerts (classical, jazz, local, traditional), local food and customs. I travel to understand cultures and enjoy nature.
PHILOSOPHY
I respect all opinions and expect mine to be respected as well.

Music, Movies, and Books
I grew up with Neapolitan songs and European opera. I still love them, but now I also appreciate jazz, big bands, Andean music, and more. Maybe someday I may even develop an appreciation for rap someday!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I don't know. Perhaps parachuting over the Rhine - well, not exactly over the Rhine of course - was amazing for me. Close encounters with wild elephants at Corbett park in India was another. Meeting Quecha Indians in Ecuador... Seeing Petra in Jordan...
