CURRENT MISSION

trying to help the people enjoy our common short ride on Planet Earth

ABOUT ME

That's tough...I enjoy good and quiet conversations with few close friends, but also partying hard...I like the cities full of art and history, but also going back to nature from time to time...I enjoy people with whom I see eye to eye, but also the ones who have a completely different point of view...I tried to be a good person in every aspect of my life, I don't think I succeed as I am not perfect but I do my best...in a nutshell I am a human-being

PHILOSOPHY

Always look on the bright side of life
When you look closely, no one is normal (da vicino, nessuno è normale).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Some friends recommended me to join CS, and I am happy I did...I took part more on side-activities rather than hosting or surfing, and I've met some great people during events and other gatherings

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None so far

Interests

Travelling most of all (guess I am in the right place here...), reading, biking, skiing, movies, and I am fond of the EU (I think it gave us, citizens of the Member States, so much...peace, freedom, opportunity to go and live abroad, and much more...)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have seen people being happy in thousands of different ways...I've travelled in Soviet-style trains for nights and enjoyed it...I found good friends where I could never expect
