I mostly work with a group of 400 under25 people from Rome in a project called Scomodo. We promote cultural and social alternatives in Rome, in order to create a new society based on sharing and awareness. Our core business is a paper made magazine distributed in all the city and in other 13 cities in Italy. To finance the magazine we organize huge events, sometimes in abandoned places, sometimes in big open air theaters, sometimes in the tube.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet local people wherever I go, because I think it really helps to know much more about places and cultures.
I don't care too much about comfort when I make a trip.
Furthermore I prefer to make low-budget travels, because in this way I can travel a little more.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is my great passion. I appreciate almost every kind of music except commercial pop. I play guitar and started playing piano. The best concert I've been to is for sure Buddy Guy's one at Umbria Jazz Festival.
I don't watch television, but I really like good films. I like theatre too and reading books.
My favorite book is probably ''Shantaram'' by G. D. Roberts, my theatre performer Roberto Latini.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a night with a murderer. I was almost overwhelming with my car a man who was sitting on his wheel chair in the middle of the street. Fortunately I didn't take him. Then we started a conversation. I discovered he was from Naples, but he moved to New York when he was four years old. He killed four men to defend his own life and has been in jail for 27 years. Now has three cancers and four to six months of living. I brought him to a concert that night.

I've organized crazy parties for 3000 people inside unconventional places like abandoned stadium, tube, ex paper factory.
