Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I had hosted some nice people but I hadn't tried it personally until july 2010. I spent a week in Biagio's place, and I felt like I had met him via my friends long time ago and I just went over to visit him. It was great.
I really hope that everybody has the right perception of and attitude towards this system, because in the long run, it really can change a lot on the face of earth. We all should believe and insist in the idea that love and understanding are concepts that we have to take universally. Whether you are beautiful or ugly, rich or poor, consider yourself as a success story or a failure, a happy person or a total depression, I am happy to know you and co-exist with you. And I'd be glad to teach you how to do that with me...
Interests
Filmmaking, and writing, my life...
Latin language, soccer, books on politics, history, human nature... Turn on some blues, and have some peace of mind. Stay near the seaside, travel as much as you can, write as much as you can, save your memories; that's all you'll have left eventually.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
the amazing sunsets I've witnessed; at the top of Nemrut, and in the Bosphorus in Istanbul.
I'm still waiting for that one 'thing' I haven't 'met' yet: Love.
Teach, Learn, Share
Best of all; best of Istanbul!
To laugh until you fall down!
To be listened, deeply...
