I am a positive, laid back, straight forward person. I tend to adjust to any kind of situation and I try to have a curious and spontaneous approach towards anything.

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing is a damn great thing when you travel. I've come across insane minds, fun and less fun people, priceless adventures. And I would do everything all over again.

Interests

My greatest passions are music, food, and travels. Being surrounded by nice people, delicious food, good music in a cool vibe is what I call heaven. Also, i love dancing, cooking, laughing, riding my bike, nature, silence, coffee, and all the small things we too often forget to pay attention to.

Except for enjoying all these great things, I am a service designer trying to leave a positive footprint in the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is my soul's food.

I'm mainly listening to a lot of funky, soul, reggae, drum n bass, hip hop, electronic, jazz, blues, swing music. I believe there is a perfect song for any part of the day.

Some of those I like: Erykah Badu, Nneka, Dub Fx, Chinese Man, Four Tet, Groundation, Rhye, Portico Quartet, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Agnes Obel,Olafur Arnalds, Jamie Woon, Soléy, Selah Sue, Hocus Pocus, Jimmy Cliff, The XX, Massive Attack, Alt J and many more..

There's nothing like reading a good book on a saturday breakfast. Anyway, I'm too often lazy and I think I should remind myself to read more often. When a book is good, indeed, all I want to do is sitting on the couch and take part to the story.
Best books read in the last years: The Millennium Trilogy, A thousand splendid suns, Shantaram

Movie wise: Baraka, Babel, Volver, The fabulous life of Amelie Poulain, Sister Act 1 and 2 (...)
