About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to travel to know nature and happy people

ABOUT ME

Actually i live near Sarzana, a very ancient country that conserves to this day the ancient medieval structure and whose origins go back to before the year 1000. Sarzana is near the city centre of La Spezia: to be more precise my house is 14 km from La Spezia ( 20 minutes by bus or 15 minutes by train).
Currently i'm changing house :)
In spring i have some old city bikes to lend you if you like to read a bike for moving in the nearest countryes.
I love this country and i like going for a walk in the hystorical center.

I like travel but i m teacher and i have a lot of holidays only in summer !!!

I have a rather optimistic view of life, i won't give up in the face of challenge or adversity. I like to play jokes and laughing with my friends. What I love most is listening to music, reading, discussions under the stars ( Sipping a good red wine glass in front of the warm hearth).
I don't smoke and I don't like it in my house; i like sport, and to do trekking with my friends on the mountains, and to swim in rivers and sea.
I like music and i play guitar: i play with my friend in a folk/rock band :)
I love red wine in winter, white wine in summer... and meet funny people.

PHILOSOPHY

...Indian thinkers viewed philosophy as a practical necessity that needed to be cultivated in order to understand how life can best be led.
