Friendly, easy going astrophysics student. I'm from Rome but now in Southampton (UK) to study.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new people is always fun! Sharing experiences, interests and good moments together is the key to international understanding and certainly provides us good memories. Moreover, it is thanks to others that we get to know ourselves. So: travel, travel travel!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: classical music, rock music, italian songwriters, prog, metal-prog. Favourites: we can discuss as much as you like about this.

Movies: I like different genres, depending on the mood. Dramatic (Artificial Intelligence is my favourite), Comedies (Mrs Doubtfire is amazing), Dystopia (Cloud Atlas is a masterpiece).

Books: I like novels that do not simply tell a story, but that make you think of how life experiences change from person to person. Kundera is one of the best writers in this respect. Other books I loved: Memoirs of a Geisha (A. Golden), Harry Potter saga (should I really mention the author?), 1Q84 (H. Murakami), Il gattopardo (Tomasi di Lampedusa), The Dark Tower saga (S. King) and many others. I'm a big fan of poetry too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I toured Iceland with a camper van with a few friends last september. Good company, stunning views, amazing hikes. Literally, the perfect holiday. Looking forward to tell you about it!

Teach, Learn, Share

I really love what I study. You are free to ask me everything you want to know about astronomy, but mind you.. I'd talk about the wonders of our universe for hours!

Cooking is my secret passion. I make cakes and sweets, and enjoy cooking ethnic food as well as (of course!) typical Italian recipes.I'll be happy to share with you as much as I can.
