CURRENT MISSION

I'm based in Berlin, Germany, and, while completing my masters, I want to explore the most inspiring cities and landscapes in Europe.

ABOUT ME

After finishing high school in Italy, I moved to Germany and started my BA in Philosophy. There I got a variety of jobs from international head hunter for engineers to gallery assistant. After a bit I decided to go back to school, and I started a master degree in cognitive-neuroscience. Among other things, I'm a bit of a homo. And I was blessed with a good homo sense of humor.

PHILOSOPHY

Listening and waiting - action comes as a necessary consequence. These are the building blocks to the grammar of life with which one can create meaning.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a great listener and talker. I am open, friendly and respectful. I like to take the time to get to know people, their views, stories, their spaces and environments. I think that's the way to acquire new knowledge that actually has a bearing in life.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I usually couchsurfed at friends' places, but I have two or three great experiences through CS. I think this has been the best tool to travel.

Interests

My main interest are language and consciousness - how the awareness of our selves brought culture and everything we have today. Besides that bla bla, I like to hike, surf, dance, travel; in my spare time I research and consume a lot of music, movies, novels, non-fiction books, popular and independent magazines.
But most importantly, as an Italian, I love food. Food from everywhere, cook in any mysterious way - it's all about the ingredients.
