About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans (Lennon)

ABOUT ME

I like to learn. Traveling is a great way to do it. Curiosity and interest, variety, differences, cultures and races, nature and territory, music and food, and all about the world. I love music, I do radio shows, I like photography, I like any possible human art or expression form, I love to cook, I like science. Mostly, I like humans. I like to listen and talk. I like to go deep inside everything I do.

PHILOSOPHY

"Si corre, si sorpassa, per amore di conquista,
si va dritti a gran velocita.
Ma si rischia di passare e andare oltre.
Certe volte hai ragione tu, beato chi non parte.
Si corre e va a finire che qualcuno poi si stanca,
si corre, ci si chiede solamente quanto manca"
(Eva Mon Amour)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Whenever I can, be my guest. I like a lot to show around my region, which is rather unknown but quite interesting. I am often out of town, so please check my status before contacting me. Do not surf so much anymore, but it is always nice to meet locals while travelling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed a few couches in the past, not so much recently. On reverse, Calabria is becoming more and more appealing for travellers (with reason, being not-touristic), so I get many requests.

Music, Movies, and Books

Broad, transversal, sometimes extreme tastes.
From rock to jazz; from Pasolini to Tarantino; from Conrad to Murakami.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one thing? no way. Sticking to travels:

Cooking mole negro with campesinos in a countryside village in Veracruz, Mexico.
Vietnam breakfast with Pho in Hanoi and grilled meat in the Mekong delta markets.
Georgian dinner with tamada.
Sicilian breakfast with GRANITA E BRIOSCH... mmmm....
Canary island telescopes above the clouds, at Pico del Teide, Tenerife.
Irish cliffs, green, and clouds.
Swimming in the 5°C cold North sea, near Cape North in Norway.
Thunderstorm in Hong Kong.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like cooking. Learning and teaching recipes is great.
Photography: likewise.
I have two radio shows: can also talk about music and radio broadcasting.
I am anxious to learn, always, whatever.
I love to discuss and talk, exhange, share.
