CURRENT MISSION

Save the world!

ABOUT ME

I'm kind of super-hero... undercover, of course.
Seriously, i'm not able to be serious for more than 2 minutes. I like joking, reading, watching movies and writing.
And since October 2010, playing with my cat Zozzobigia!

I'm vegetarian, not vegan (even if I don't eat cheese and products from milk) -
I adore massages (I'm a Lomi lomi Nui masseuse) and reflexology -

PHILOSOPHY

Still looking for one! Too curious to have just one!
But, if i deeply think, there's one i follow: JUST TIME WILL DEFEND THE RIGHT CAUSE

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I offer my couch, my teas, a chat, a stroll around, advices, help, informations, my warmth, some special dinner because i adore cooking and for me is the best way to take care of people, thousand of hugs (i'm a serial hugger, but i'm not dangerous!), i'll be tidy, respectful, clean, polite, when i'll be guest, but...

... I DON'T give my mobile number to "know each other better": CS isn't a dating system.
I don't go on a chatroom: it makes me nervous, i prefer a long mail or talking face to face.
I don't come to the airport to bring you home if time allows you to take the bus or the train.
I won't ask you anything that i can get by myself.
I won't host you if in your profile i discover some tricky game: i think it's so easy to say "sorry i cannot host you", instead of judging people QI, rules to avoid overbooking are ok, making people feel stupid is impolite... Not all the people are able to understand a Proficiency level english!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Till now, CS made me know special people, everyone gave me spiritual gifts, and i hope to have given back love and affection.
I found true friends, ready to help me in life, and we're still in contact.
Some other just crossed my way, but the time we shared left us pleasant memories, as a long stroll in medieval side of the city or a bottle of wine in a palestinian pizzeria in Milan!

Interests

Reading essays, novels, science fiction, i'm addicted!
Listening music from classic to folk: the most important thing is if it makes me move my body and shake the soul.
Dancing: i practice jazz dance, but every friday i'm i a brazilian disco pub to dance!
But the best for me is going out and discover the world around

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My Visited Countries

In St. Petersbourg a little bear "kissed" me.
In Lisbon, i crossed the Tejo on the Eborense boat like Kate Winslet in Titanic.
In Cuba i had a beer in Al Capone's house.
In Ireland i DIDN'T get drunk (amazing, isn't it?)
In Paris i cried for a Peter Brook's play.
In Moscow i learnt to read cyrillic by myself to use alone the undergrond.
In Greece i wrote a book (but i was 12 years old)
In Netherlands i ate the best oriental food ever, and i didn't smoke at all.
In Croatia a painter dedicated to me a work.
In London i fell in love with a bookstore.
In Spain i decided that Barcelona is better than Madrid (but is my own opinion) and Bilbao during Aste Nagusia is the best place to do crazy things
In Monaco i've been on a helycopter
In Germany i drove a bike along the river that crosses Koln
In Praha i discovered how sweet is a collegue of mine
In Switzerland i was on the Devil's bridge in Luzern, but i didn't meet him
In Mexico i became friend of an iguana
In Scotland i've been in an amazing B&B, where the owner gave me home made jam to carry home. But it finished during the Fringe festival...

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach to appreciate a place that doesn't show immediately hom much is amazing and beautiful.
I learn to be patient and open my life to people that i don't know. And to say "yes" to the unexpected events.
I share my experience of life: it can be cooking, italian language or the point of wiew of a strange little italian teacher. All i am.
