About Me

I think that to survive nowadays a man should know something of everything.. That's the way I'm trying to live, I'm a good listener, and I'm very curious of the way other people think and live.
I like company, but also spending time alone, particularly into nature: mountains, forests.. I love wild and peaceful places.. That's why I feel sometimes lost in very crowded and big cities. I live 2 months per year in California, near Sacramento.. so my english is improving year by year.. I'm working on learning New languages, So, any help is well accepted!;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I must confess I don't think to be a good rover.. When I travel I always think of my own country, but I like to meet people from different part of the world, and I finally understood that a man who does not travel is like a plant growing with few light.. It's gonna be thin and weak.. Only travelling and meeting different point of views you can become mature and open minded.
Anyway, I'll be also glad of having guests in my beautiful town, and show them the "Riviera dei Fiori" sited by the sea and 2 hours from 2000 mt high mountains.

Interests

I like farming, every year expanding my little organic garden, and that's also a reason why I'm not travelling so much.. (Who will take care of my plants?!)
I also like animals (in my family we have a little dog, a turtle and a dozen of hens), especially bees, I hope soon to take care of one beehive.
I believe in degrowth theory, and hope one day to create an ecovillage on my mountains, producing almost anything we need to live.
If you're asking: "Why do you wear that strange hat with eagle feather?", you have basically found my real passion: I made one year military service in the Italian mountain troops, called "Alpini", anyway I'm no more in the army, actually I think to be a really peaceful guy, and wearing that hat now means to me taking care of our environment and helping people during natural disasters.
I love music and especially singing: I sing in a chorus of traditional popular "Alpini" songs, but I like to sing most anything.
Living in a country full of olive trees, I've become an "olive oil taster", basically a sommelier of oil, and keep on practicing in that amazing world.
I'm really involved in Natural Medicine, particulary the philosophy of M. Lazaeta Acharan, concerning the importance of food in human health.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like almost any kind of music.. I'm very curious of traditional music from different part of the world, Irish Folk music is one of my favourite (basically The Dubliners).

I love history and most of the books I read have this topic, but I read also other things.. My "bible" is the "Manual of the warrior of light" by Paulo Coelho.
I watch a lot of kind of movies, but one of my favourite is Cloud Atlas.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Would be a pity tell stories here, it's better vis à vis ..!! :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll be glad in sharing what I know and learn what people would like to teach me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If I have no job commitments, I would like to show the place where I live from sea to mountains, passing through the little ligurian villages, and sharing typical meals and activities.
