关于我
I am the financial reporting manager of a company from energy sector (and a former professor of Finance and Accounting at a business school). In my free time, I learn foreign languages (I speak between 7 and 12, depending on how strict you are). Most of my other dreams have to do with travelling. The most exotic destination I'm attracted by is probably the island of Tristan da Cunha in the middle of Atlantic Ocean (half way from South Africa to Uruguay); its administrative centre, Edinburgh of the Seven Seas is 2,173 kilometres away from the nearest human settlement, which makes it the most remote permanent settlement on Earth.
我为什么加入 Couchsurfing
I enjoy how similar we (human beings) are, despite the differences between our cultures. Couchsurfing is one more amazing proof that virtue has no nationality, race or religion.
兴趣
LANGUAGES
You can see the list of ones I speak in the other section of my profile but I'm interested in languages generally, discussing what is common among them. Even if I don't speak a word of that language :)
FOOTBALL
I am a fan of Italian national team and AC Milan since 1994 . Also, I play football with my friends / colleagues at least twice a week (you're welcome to join us if you'd like to).
TRAVELLING & GEOGRAPHY
I adore learning new things about the countries of the world and the people living in them.

音乐、电影和书籍
MUSIC
My playlist hasn't changed much over the latest 10+ years. I keep listening to the same songs (which is sometimes annoying, as you might guess) but add new ones mainly when I learn a new language and discover a singer/band performing in it. Negramaro (Italy), Moda' (Italy), Tose Proeski (Macedonia), Ana Carolina (Brazil) are among such kind of 'exotic' favourites of mine.
BOOKS (in a random order)
Flowers for Algernon (Daniel Keyes); Sherlock Holmes (Arthur Conan Doyle); 1984 (George Orwell); Twelve Chairs, The Golden Calf (both by Ilya Ilf & Yevgeny Petrov); Connecticut Yankee In King Arthur's Court (Mark Twain); The Absolute at Large (Karel Capek)
FILMS (in a random order)
The Green Mile; Million Dollar Baby; Gran Torino; 3 Idiots; Ivan Vasilyevich: Back to the Future (Иван Васильевич меняет профессию); What Men Discuss (О чём говорят мужчины); The Secret in Their Eyes (El secreto de sus ojos); The Lives of Others (Das Leben der Anderen)
