About Me

CURRENT MISSION

share knowledge, learn cultures

ABOUT ME

I am a geek for most kinds of technologies.
I love music, singing and dancing, although on dancing I always feel is not enough. I like doing sports but not that much. I like weird things and people, for some reason I always stand on behalf of loosers, I like to create things that leave something behind on a big scale if possible.

PHILOSOPHY

I let events move towards me after pushing (pulling?) them a little bit

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like sharing my place to gather new friends and show the people around the things I know. I am a social guy and I really like to do things together with others. When I travel to some place, I like to see places with the eyes of the people who live there.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Few hosts and guests, all very cool :)

Interests

Computers, videogames, technology, Music, Dancing, politics, languages, science, feelings.
Make the world better, for me and maybe for others. Develop things that can be used by others. Share knowledge, acquire knowledge, always try to learn new things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting Galapagos with my friend Francesca

Teach, Learn, Share

Open Knowledge and knowledge sharing: I can teach the basics of digital rights and digital freedom, copyleft vs copyright, open licenses in arts and other fields

Free Software and Open Source: I can teach anbody how to free their computers - installing GNU/Linux and all the cool free software out there

Music: I can play guitar and harmonica, I love to show other people how to do that

Fixing machines: I like understanding and fixing any kind of machine

Dancing: I'm learning how to dance in couples a bit late in my life, but I love to share knowledge about any kind of dance in the world.

Politics: I like politics, workers'rights, ideas for new economy. I am really happy to discuss about these two things even though I have no real background on this.
