ABOUT ME

First there train and some latin words like 'lungimirante', 'companatico' and 'sobremesa'. Interrails (real ones and not so real ones) were the first attempts of travelling, and then I met my second love, thumb. Through hitchiking I found a lot of adventures and unexpected situations, a no-plan kind of life. South America was a big playground that taught me how to live very good life without money.
Some years ago I met my third love, bike.
Once I left with a broken bike from Barcelona and I arrived until Turkey. And once in a while I need a little time to ride mountains and roads in the two wheels in new places, hammocking around!
And I recently came back hitchhiking (and sailing boat hitching) from Australia until Norway

For casuality of life, some years ago, an old man left me and my friend an incredible cozy house in the valley outside Barcelona, in exchange to mantain the garden, the house and the pool. We started a permacultural garden, bought hens and through the help of friends we manage to keep everything alive and well. Meanwhile I played in a big balkanic band (Fanfarrai), do some impro comedy theatre and a folk techno project about metropolitan megafony of bcn (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-ph9lNKD8Q)

When I travel, I bring with me an old Zenit camera and an instrument, generally some little string one.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A lot of people helped me in the way unconditionately and I'll surely have pleasure to return the favour now. I'd like to be a kind of eno-gastronomical Virgilio.

Interests

Lately i am trying to finish a book of 'narrative photographies' and enjoying playing music, (hitch)hiking, mountains, writing articles and resolving the problems of the world with wine and cheese.

I have a couple of 'artistic' photo sites, this is the new one:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In just one day I walked 50 border kilometers, a family eating on the side of the road offered picnic, I met a famous italian singer, I got robbed while having a nap and I've been kicked out of a plane...
