About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in Milan mi casa es tu casa.

I've also hosted a few travelers in the past, and I showed them some of the beautiful Mediterranean beaches in my hometown in Taranto and Brussels.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I believe CS is a great way to meet up with friends you don't know yet, and all my CS experiences so far have been exciting, interesting and incredibly surprising.
That's give the motivation to keep CSurfing instead of going for ordinary trips.

Interests

Politics, it's what I studied the most, I love the ways societies find to manage themselves and how them interface each others, plus is a good indicator to measure our society and culture.

Music, I play bass guitar and I've been working as sound technician for a couple of years.

Books, I'm a passionate reader, especially social essay, novels and travel histories

Swimming and underwater fishing, my hometown it's in front of the mediterranean sea and the water it's my element.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I teached english to a all-ages class in a monastey in Cambodia.

I rode horses in the australian Outback.

I saw wild penguins getting back to their nests in Tasmania.

I dived in the Great Coral Reef

I gave EU politics classes in two Japanese Universities

Teach, Learn, Share

With my feet upon the ground
I lose myself between the sounds
and open wide to suck it in,
I feel it move across my skin.

I'm reaching up and reaching out,
I'm reaching for the random or
what ever will bewilder me
what ever will bewilder me.

And following our will and wind
we may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end
and may just go where no one's been.
