I'm a mechatronic engineer, and when I'm not lost into the magical world of numbers I love to travel and see what's around me. Sometimes it helps to rear the head and take a glance at the world, to feel less lonely in our life-trip.

I love to walk around and cycle. Slow as it's needed, talking about any kind of topic, sharing stories and points of view. I love listening to enthusiastic people who have dreams and something to tell.
Although, I also love unexpected parties, when you find yourself dancing and you don't even know why-hy-hy or how-ow-ow. Actually, I'm quite goofy at dancing, but I don't care and do it anyway.

I'm a volunteer in the educational field as a scout leader, I organize outdoor activities for young people, such as camping, orienteering, do-it-yourself stuff.
I like to live in the woods, as simple as possible, I love mountain hiking and I used to do rock climbing.

I'm vegan since I understood that animals are simply amazing and I'm not the center of the universe. Actually, outside from home, I tend to be vegetarian, because it can be difficult otherwise.

I'm an improvisational theatre actor, because I'm too lazy to memorize a script and because making mistakes on stage can be extremely funny and creative!

I play guitar and ukulele, I love music and karaoke, so be prepared to sing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The first time I used CS, I travelled for a month and a half across the Europe, meeting some great people, and I understood this is an amazing way to travel. It allowed me to visit real places, to get in touch with the vivid matter of people's life. And when you relate yourself to the world, when you exit from your own head, that's where magic happens.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Thru-hiked across Appennini's mountain.

Organized several camping in the woods for young kids as a scout leader.

Travelled for a month and a half across Europe, using CS and hitchhiking, carrying a little ukulele with me.

Free climbed on the top of a crane to watch the sunset when I was a kid... Maybe I just read too many times The Little Prince :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy cooking, so I can teach how to cook some real italian pasta or pizza! :D
I can share lots of things about scouting and living in the woods, games from improv, sing along songs, but maybe the most important thing I can share is my curiosity :)
