CURRENT MISSION

To discover strange, new worlds...

ABOUT ME

Hello everyone,
as you can guess, I'm someone else who loves travelling. My dream would be some other planet, but in the meanwhile, I'm happy with our little, precious Earth.
Concretely: I come from a town in the north of Italy, I've spent four years in Marseille, France, as an Erasmus student and as a PhD, and now I'm still here, looking for a job in research. Maybe I'd describe myself at first as "curious". So, taking walks around the world comes quite naturally.

PHILOSOPHY

Go deep and fly high. The world's not there for you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf and host. And of course, I encourage :D

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had my first "close encounter of the third kind" participating to a CS meeting in Marseille. Then I began to surf (on trips with friends, so far) and host some people from "far, far away".

Interests

Whatever I can try to understand - and the remainder.
People, music, books, comics, fresh air, nature and environment, sport, art, cultures, languages, beliefs, philosophy, science, technology. Real world and current events, associations. Veggie kitchen. Martial arts (I'm on my way for being a karateka). What I don't know. Drawing, theatre... I can't complete the list here!
I must admit, I'm a zero in cinema and TV series: suggestions are highly appreciated, then!
