I live in Paris, grown up in Italy (Bergamo, near Milan).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been on CS for quite a while... enough to say "I do remember the times when... :-D", but I swear I'll never play that boring card when we'll meet. CS has always been about a different way of traveling, meeting, sharing , being curious and open to whom and what you can find along the way. Be a person like this and you will find many like you on CS ;-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ice skating on a 5 km track on a frozen lake in the middle of the forest in Central Finland. In the darkness. It has been pretty cool until I hit a tree

Teach, Learn, Share

Always eager to learn from others: there are so many things I know little about. Every person other than me has a peculiar experience of something which I probably ignore. I often think how great would be being able to absorb a part of it, to suck it up as per osmosis, to see with his/her eyes. Until I cannot find a way to do that, is enough to listen to your stories, images and ideas and to learn something from. On the other side, beside taking you to the great spots for locals, I can teach you some bites of rock and roll dance, how to prepare Italian dishes and how to have your coat make a visit to Florence and come back (leave your coat as I did on a train from Milan to Florence and if you are stupid and lucky as me you'll have it back on the next train from Florence to Milan).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cleaning the house (the bathroom in particular), doing the dishes, going to the supermarket... :-D :-D
