CURRENT MISSION
Graduating ;)
ABOUT ME
Ive recently graduated in natural sciences at the University of Florence. I love wild nature and plants (my thesis was about mosses).
My main interest is microscopy and in particular advanced microscopy techniques. I like to project and build new systems, so I can do some electronics, programming and machining metal parts with lathe and milling machines. My favourite instrument is my electron microscope, a fascinating machine which allows to see the infinetly small things around us!
I have just moved to Turku, Finland for my Master's degree in Biomedical imaging. I might be able to host again in the future in Turku.
PHILOSOPHY
Never do to others what you wouldn't like them to do to you. Respect all living beings. Sadly, among all, humankind is the worst species on Earth...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I can offer my couch with pleasure to anyone willing to stop for more than just one night and make friendship. I don't want to be a hostel. I prefer if we have some time to spend together so we can get to know each other, talk and have fun. Since I'm not always able to take care of my guests because of my things, I can't assure to be free to host at every time.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've hosted many people so far, and it has always been a great experience!
Interests
I love Nature in all its forms. I love everything that lives. I love simple things of life, a good meal with friends, talking with interesting and respectful people, walking in a forest. Actually I spend most of my time by myself, studying and doing my things.
- walking
- music
- guitar

Music, Movies, and Books
I don't have any particular interest in movies, I usually feel bored after a short time because I feel too passive watching them.
I love listening to music (but who doesn't!?), expecially when I feel sad, it helps me a lot! Thrash/heavy metal (80's), but also rock and blues, and some italian songwriters.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you some italian. I can tell you about my country.
I also like to talk about society and human relations and about my philosophy about those, and share experiences.
