About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Not to have regrets when I'll reach the end

ABOUT ME

I am a historian and writer, but most of all a traveller. I have visited more than 60 countries on 4 continents, and wrote a book about my experience in South America. What I love about travelling is that it takes you out of your small world and provoke you to think, and rethink your beliefs. And I think CS is a good way to connect with places and cultures you are not familiar with and learn directly from the source :)

PHILOSOPHY

Live, but not in vain!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To learn about your country and to help with any information I can from my travels.

PS: CS is for cultural exchange, not a dating site, so I’m not interested in other type of exchanges

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Mostly literature (Dostoievski, Ismail Kadare, Milan Kundera, Viet Than Nguyen, etc), but more recently I love to read science (mostly phisics) and I would definetly love to learn more if you activate in this domain :)

Movies: Rebel without a cause, American beauty, brother Coen's movies, Krzysztof Kieslowski's (Three Colours: Red, White, Blue), Interstellar
