About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Cross-cultural trainin'! :)

ABOUT ME

From others...

"Ogni luogo è patria mia perché di ogni luogo posso vedere il cielo" - Seneca.

"...dealing with languages is not only an effective and joyful means of developing human relationships, but also of preserving one's mental capacity and spiritual balance." - Lomb

I love it now that a large minority of people who are handicapped prefer to call themselves crippled. This is all part of the game, like queer theory. - Fiedler

PHILOSOPHY

Be free within your bubble, be careful with other's ones.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Beginner

10 November, 2010. 11:35 PM: I've just had my first couchsurfing meeting! Let me say this: This is great! Nothing better if you're looking for real human cross-cultural contact. Awesome... I hope to meet more people soon, sharing good times with them worths it!

11 November, 2010. 11:58 PM: I've just had my second couchsurfing experience. My gosh, I think this is the best place I can be: the world seems to smile to me from different places... Such a nice feeling! I'm completely happy doing this and hope to do a lot more.

13 November, 2010: This is my third couchsurfing experience. I've met and made very good friends. The 'borders' of our culture shattered into pieces letting affection in charge. It was nice to laugh at life's stupidities with someone else. Now a bound is crossing from Colombia to Hungary, a new Colombo-Hungarian friendship is born.
