Resumen
Sobre mí
CURRENT MISSION
Hitchhiker, couchsurfer, juggler and harmonica player
ABOUT ME
Oh, well. I'm curious, extremely curious and people tell me I'm very, very "ACCOLLATIVO". Which is a word that happens to exist only in Sicily and which approximately means: "Propose me anything to do. I'll never say no!" Yes, it's difficult to explain even in Italian (and I'm Italian) but the core of the matter is that an "accollative" person is a person who's always in disposition to partecipate in activities and loves to take risks in life.
I really like music (almost any genre), and I'm really interested in languages and travels. I'm a student in Particle Physics interested in learning as much as I can about world and people.
PHILOSOPHY
"Megghiu riri chi sacciu ca' chi sapia!"
It's a saying of my land that means:
"It's better to say I don't know, that I didn't know"
...yeah, I know, you didn't understand anything (I'm really bad with translations) but if is there anyway to explain it, it is to say it's the Sicilian equivalent of "Carpe Diem"
Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Unfortunately, I've a very small home and I cannot host, but I would really like to welcome people travelling in Manchester.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've been hosted in several cities through Germany. It was certainly one of the best experiences I ever had and one of the many I wanna repeat for sure.
Intereses
I like motorcycles. I really like them. I also practice Tae Kwon Do (which is a Korean martial art) and in these days I'm practising with juggling (I've to admit, it's more fun than I imagined) and in playing harmonic.

Música, películas y libros
Movies and TV series:
I'm really fond of TV series, that's how I picked up some english. My favourite TV series are How I Met Your Mother, Doctor Who, Being Human, Scrubs, Misfits, etc...
My favourite movie is obviously Into The Wild but there are a lot more, like: Across The Universe, Good Bye Lenin, Back To The Future, With Honors, Inception and Memento (Nolan is genius), all Tarantino movies, Intouchables and a lot of other movies.
Music:
I really like Jazz, like Bebop and Piano jazz (Thelonius Monk and Erroll Garner) or covers (Jacques Loussier and European Jazz Trio) but my favourite is Gypsy Jazz. I love Django Reinhardt, Biréli Lagrène and generally speaking acoustic guitar (Rodrigo y Gabriela).
More common groups I like are Oasis, The Doors and Queen. I'm of course a Beatles fan and I really like Latin-like pop music (Jarabe de Palo, Kaleido, Sergio Mendes and Maria Gadù)
Books:
I really like to discover indie books (from indipendent writers). Sometimes you find really bad literature, sometimes you find little unknown treasures. Anyway I really like dystopic novels and "alternate history" plots (and about that, "The Man In The High Castle" is a masterpiece)
Algo increíble que he hecho
Ask me in person. I'm Italian, I need my hands to tell stories!
Enseña, aprende, comparte
I love to learn things, and I also love to teach!
Anyway, what I really love about travelling is the chance to know different ways to cook. I love cooking and fortunately Sicily is famous for having hundreds and hundreds of typical dishes (someone would say we love to eat and we spend several hours at dinner and lunch. Well, let's say that's not entirely untrue)
Besides, I really love learning those little things that belong to a certain culture: Gestures (I happen to realize we italians are champions in these), sayings, dialects but also jokes and local songs.
I can definitely say I had lot of fun while sharing these while travelling!
