About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live!!! Enjoy the life in all its possible ways...

ABOUT ME

"...you were not born to live like brutes, but to follow virtue and knowledge!" In this sentence from Dante Alighieri's Divina Commedia is summarized my life-philosophy... a strong will to discover, know, see, observe ...and therefore ...a great desire to travel!!!
And travelling...not only physically, but sure also dreaming...in a large tension towards the unexplored infinity!

PHILOSOPHY

...learn, discover, know, see, observe... life could be too short...to lose only a minute!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

...travelling with Couchsurfing, for sure !!

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning: I like very much not only to visit monuments and places but above all to "understand" the towns with the help of a person who lives there.. to enter the "mood" of a place, to listen to the the people, the sounds, the ...the real life..this is the thing that makes the difference between being a tourist and a traveller...

Sharing: ...I would like to share my knowledge of Milan, its history, monuments, places, ways of living..
