About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel around the world and take pictures of everything

ABOUT ME

It's hard not to be vague in this cases, or escapist, ending up talking about what I've done or what I like. Let's say I'm still in the process of knowing who I am and you may have a better idea of me if you scroll down a bit.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and learn. Observe and reflect. Try not to judge, because everyone is on the same boat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've done couchsurfing a couple of times this year. In late March I received for three days a Brazilian boy who lived in Milan.

Later in July I surfed at a guy's house in Stockholm, friends of a friend of mine. It was interesting because he was from Chile, so I could experience the Swedish way of life with a bit of a Chilean style.

Two months later I headed to Slovenia and stayed at Sara's house, a very interesting and sweet girl, with a lovely family. It was awesome to live a bit of that Slovenian way of life. Also, on the same trip, I've been to Zurich and stayed at Rene's house, a very polite yet funny guy who owes a charming flat in the center of the city.

Interests

Photography, arts, cinema, music, society, philosophy, esotericism, Buddhism, everything that drives towards experimental and runs from a comfort zone.

  • arts
  • photography
  • boating
  • movies

  • music

Music, Movies, and Books

Again, everything that is not conformist and/or makes me reflect about life. You can maybe have a better idea here:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This year in special has been the most amazing one of my life, so I think I can pick up some highlights like:

- the night sky full of stars and a piece of the Milky Way in the Moroccan Sahara;
- the sunrise at Lake Bled in Bled, Slovenia.
- the sunset and night in a farm area nearby Kranj, Slovenia.
- the forest in Sognsvann, Oslo, Norway.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not sure if I have a knowledge which I could qualify as "special", but I do know some stuff about photography which I'm always sharing with someone who seems interested.

Countries I’ve Visited
