Music, Movies, and Books

Mostly rock (classical, indie, hard rock, punk, metal), electronic, old school hip-hop. I read pretty much everything that does not involve flat earth and 9/11 conspiracy theories. I wish the movie of my life was directed by Christopher Nolan.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once upon a time I paid for coffee for everybody in the whole bar without nobody around knowing. Some were really puzzled, others were genuinely happy about it and all those smiles really made my day.

I once jumped from a running bus as the driver had skipped my stop in the middle of the night. Death toll: watch, cellphone, glasses. It could have been a tooth or two so I might consider myself lucky other than utterly reckless.

I unwittingly foiled a robbery attempt when I bumped into a guy who was slowly making his escape with an old lady's bag. I totally felt at peace with life.

While in Cascais, Portugal I heard a street musician playing one of my favourite songs (can't tell you which) so I sat by him and sang along. I stayed for over an hour and we raised approx. 80-90. He still insisted for me to keep one half.

Recently I went from sincere hate with a guy to being best friends in 5 minutes just because he noticed the logo of his favourite football team on my gloves.
But the truth is, the gloves belonged to a friend of mine.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a friendly, curious adventurer willing to mingle in and live like locals do :)

I am very willing to appreciate the company of whoever would host me and promise to exchange the favour anytime for the rest of my life (ofc beers and drinks for the very same night will be on me!)

Due to having been in countless trips to many places around Europe, I am pretty much familiar with most of our good ol' continent and I never run out of stories to tell and facts to share. You will never get bored!

Oh and I am Italian. Born and raised on the Southern coastline, forged by the sun and the sea and all the beautiful fat of the land that Nature has bestowed upon us.
In short - expect delicious cooking.
