PHILOSOPHY

"The circle symbolizes T'ai Chi which is formless and above duality. Here it is manifesting itself as the progenitor of the universe. It is divided into yin (the dark) and yang (the light) which signify the negative and positive poles. Pairs of opposites, passive and active, female and male, moon and sun. "
F. Battiato, Il ballo del potere.

"We should not want a single condition, but we must want to become periodic beings: i.e. become identical to the existence"

"We want to be poets of our lives, first of all in everyday matters"

F. Nietzsche

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I SHARE..

whatever life bring us..

I CREATE..
connections, beauty, love, music, words, hope, pain, sufference, energies, hugs, smiles and so many other things

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

See references (when they will arrive back:) meanwhile just know that:

I started hosting (very few) in 2009, then stopped for 2010 and hosted again a bit more in Erasmus in 2011.
Since november 2011 I started living on the road and used what had already become crp$rfing for any time i was passing through a city, meeting some of the best friend and making some of the best encounters of my life..
Since february 2013 I started busking (streetperforming, playing music) and since june of the same year I stopped (almost) using the internet to find the people I needed..The Road and the Streets were already giving me all the best experiences without any screen nor electricity..
Now, eventually and hopefully quitting Europe, i may probably need to use crpsrfing again..:)
we will see!:)

Interests

- Spirituality (in particular Islamic, i.e Sufism, i.e Dhikr, Praying, smiling, being kind, help the people especially the needy, being gentle and many other good manners!:))

- Languages (the more ancient and complex and the more charming)
- Philosophy (i.e Love for Wisdom as the actual original Greek meaning, not pointless modern intellectual speculation)
- Science (knowledge and not arrogance)
- Medicine (art of healing and not poisoning with drugs)
- Music (vibration and soul expression, not mechanic execution)
- Hitchhiking, moneyless travels and lifestyles (as a way and a path to oneself and to the Fate, not to grow your ego)
- Healthy life and food
- Ancestral rythuals and traditions
- Organic agriculture, permaculture

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Experiencing the Invisible within my heart and crying of joy incapable to react

- Met the people who changed and radically transformed my life from the inside

- Love, Energy, Emotions.
Each and every people, especially children's, smile..
Each and every dawn and sunset I've witnessed
Feelings and shivers of freedom realizing the simplicity of the world and the destiny..

- I hitchhiked, busked, dumpsterdived, tramped, lived around Baltic and Scandinavian Countries for a month and half with my brother (july-august 2013)

- I hitchhiked from Elbasan (Albania) to Patras(Greece) through Ohrid (Macedonia), Litochoro-Olymps and Athens (Greece) with my mum (August 2014)

-I lived in (some people might say visited but for me is the same) some crazily awesome countries like:
ICELAND! (Best landscapes so far)
IRAN! (Best people so far)
NORWAY! GEORGIA! ARMENIA! MOLDOVA! SARDINIA! CRETE!
