Hello everyone!
I am an human with a lot of interests. In particular, I am interested in arts, mythology and noir novels.
I have studied Anthropology and religion in Bologna, for I am attracted by meeting people from other cultures, respecting the diversity of the world; but I also love to expand my knowledge in other fields, such as psychology.
In a decade I see myself being a mythologist!

On Facebook you can find me as "Daniele Ventola", or with my page "Vento della Seta" (means Windo of Silk).
Instagram: Vento della Seta

Sono un ragazzo curioso con tanti interessi. In particolare per l'arte la mitologia e i noir. Ho studiato antropologia a Bologna e voglio diventare uno studioso di miti e religioni e psicologia. Amo conoscere nuove culture con un gran rispetto per le differenze.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I decided to sign up because in May 2018 I started the long journey of the Silk Road (from Venice to Pekin) on foot. During this travel, I might need your help for some nights!
I also love to meet other people and everybody knows that to be shown around by a local as a different flavour and that could lead to unexpected adventures.
Once I will have my own house I swear I will reciprocate the favor!

Mi sono iscritto poiché a maggio intraprenderò un gran viaggio, la Via della Seta (da Venezia a Pechino) a piedi e durante il tragitto potrei averne bisogno, ma anche perché mi piace l'idea di poter conoscere nuove persone e nuove avventure. Riuscirò, quando avrò una mia casa, a ricambiare il favore.

Teach, Learn, Share

Fuggiremo il riposo,
Fuggiremo il sonno,
Supereremo in velocità
l'alba e la primavera
e costruiremo giorni e stagioni
a misura dei nostri sogni.

We will flee the rest,
We will flee the sleep.
Surpassing dawn and spring in speed
And we will build days and seasons
tailored to our dreams.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will be happy to help you keep up the housework and to cook some Italian (especially neapolitan! and thus delicious) food.
All else I can offer is journeys' stories and the simple and real encounter between humans.

Un'aiuto per le faccende di casa, cucina tipica napoletana, racconti di viaggio, un bell'incontro umano ed essenziale.
