Overview
About Me
People describe me as happy, positive, chilled and open minded, but usually call me weirdo :)
I enjoy life simple (not basic), sharing what I know and learning from what I don't, always in the search for good habits.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To share and be surprised.
Couchsurfing inevitably exposes ourselves to many different ways to think and act as many people we met. That's why when reading profiles, I'm not expecting to find exact same interests, but looking for the vibes in it.
Interests
Philosophy, psychology, sex, love and relationships; running and workouts as a way of expression; hiking around the Highlands to perceive and be one with nature; throwing some shapes at gigs or nightclubs to release some endorphins; spoiling myself with a good meal or just eating to get energy to move on...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I decided to change my professional path from Industrial Engineer to Lighting technician after years of studies and experience, very grateful I was offered this opportunity when I moved to Glasgow. A fresh start: turning a hobby into a job. It took a time. I started from scratch and it had its ups and downs, but one day eventually I got to squeeze myself in a lovely venue and today I could not be happier :)
Update: Time passes and changes are welcomed! Lighting technician life was good and relaxed, allowed me to make massive transitions in life but I felt it was not representative of who I became in this last 5 years... So I studied, got a diploma in Massage Therapy and I'm living in the Isle of Arran delighted with this new trade bringing smiles and laughter to people :)
Teach, Learn, Share
Awesome groovy music, running and workout techniques, recipes*, an approach to life :)
* Do never follow a recipe except baking, that's serious stuff...

Always the place where I am staying it's my home and I behave like that, clean, tidy, and so don't get surprise if you found me cooking a dinner to share and playing some music =P
