CURRENT MISSION

Citizen of the world, music for the people!

ABOUT ME

I am a 24 years old italian student. I love to travel, though not as a tourist: my aim is to meet people, make friends, discover places. I am very friendly and open minded, I like to talk and I am a tireless walker!

PHILOSOPHY

Learn to enjoy every little thing in life. Every day.

Interests

I am a languages and literature student, so I like to talk foreign languages; I can speak English and Spanish, and a little bit of French. As a literature student, I like to read a lot, and to talk about everything which sourrounds the world of art: cinema, visual arts, music. I play the guitar and I particularly like jazz and rock music, though it would be more correct to say that I like music and rythm in general, especially when I can play it with other people. And, obviously, I like to travel: city and countryside, sea and mountain, I believe every new place, with the right company, is worth being visited.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This summer I travelled in Brittany, France. Despite the fact I was alone, every day I managed to meet interesting and friendly people who made my trip unforgettable: one night when I didn't know where to sleep I was lent a tent to sleep on a beach; another day a couple I had asked indications to invited me to their home to share dinner with them. I discovered a new way of travelling that restored my faith in people :)
