Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I don't have much space and time. but if there is people that show particular interest i can organize to host them or at least organize something together. (a coffe, a drink, a walk a bicicle ride etc)

Interests

i like a lot sport, I play in a field hockey team and go running, cycling, seimming and climbing.

then i like the social aspect of living in a big city. i'm lucky because torino as a lot of oportunity such as movie festivals, concerts, exibitions etc
My favourite place/events: cine teatro baretti, teatro della caduta, paratissima, Torino film festival, luci d'artista.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a lot South American Literature (Sepulveda, Paco Ignacio Taibo II) when I can I read in Spanish.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i like a lot travelling, in the last years i made some bicicle tour in summer in Netherlands, Normandie, Corsica, croatia, basque country, Bretagne. In the last 2 couchsurfing was an importanti part of the trip!
i like the speed of the travel. travelling by bicicle it's not so fast so you appreciate a lot the places and gives you a lot of flexibility.

Teach, Learn, Share

i'm not really a good cooker but i like to try to cook few dishes (the one that i like to eat :-) ) and be good in that. i like to look for ingredients at the market, look for the recipes and then invite people to share!!! :-) try my risotto al radicchio, pesche al forno con ripieno di amaretti, tiramisù, tagliatelle
i can show you around town maybe take a bicile and have a ride
