Overview
About Me
I'd like to define my self as a cheerful person, always interested and curious about what's around me. I am the eldest sibling of a crazy three squad team (my brother is 16 and my little sister is 2). Since September 2015 I moved in the UK, studying scriptwriting for Film and Television in Bournemouth University (Dorset). I'm enjoying this new life as well, trying always to be in touch with the best of both worlds. I love travelling and meeting new people, in my high school I studied three foreign languages: english, french and spanish, and I wish I could learn and travel more! It's beautiful to always learn from everything and everywhere.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because travel is one of the best benefit we have and it's a spent of time, energy, money that always make you reacher inside. And the best way to travel is meeting people living in that area, learning how they live, what they eat, they're culture, their favourite places, music, hobbies, etc.
Overall, we are supposed to be the reflect of where we live and where we have been.

Music, Movies, and Books
As a scriptwriting student, movies are a passion I've been growing since I was young when, during greys and rainy days, I spent hours with my mum and dad watching movies. I enjoy reading the scripts and see how they are transported into the cinematography. I really like the peculiarity of Wes Anderson and Coen Brothers' films, I love the sympathy of Woody Allen, the poetic of Tornatore and Fellini, the passion of Kassovitz and Jeunet, the inventiveness of Nolan, Hitchcock, Kubrick. Okay, as you can you understand, there are so many!
For what concerns music I love pretty much all genres (except for the "heavy" ones, or the ones too extreme): right now I'm really into rap, raggae, indie, and many others that, most of times, I can't even define!
Due to my previous studies and current interests, literature is also one of my main interest that let me learnt so much just from some paper and some words: isn't that amazing? I really like some italian authors like Pirandello, Leopardi, Dante or Verga, but also I'm really into french poetry (Baudelaire, Rimbaud, Verlaine above all) and english/american poetry/prose: I really love the romantic movement in english literature and I completely fell in love with the American "beat" writers, most of all with Kerouac and his book "On the road".
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Probably moving in the UK, probably the exchange to Mexico. Seeing the pyramids or teaching my sister how to express "it's really good" gesture for food in italian. Listening to the magic music in Montmartre or laughing with my brother until we cry. The dinners and the drunkness with friends, reading a poem from Baudelaire.
I think we always do amazing thing if we want, everyday.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach, Learn, Share: I think it is pretty much the aim.
What I Can Share with Hosts
"I learnt from him as much as he probably learnt from me"
This should be what we should learn when we travel, when we want to experience and we learn from living: learning as much you can from the person in front of you, treat him/her with respect and try to understand the diversities, the opinions, the suggestion. Learning is a sharing principle that I'm always happy to witness and to contribute with.
After all, happiness is real only when shared, no?
