About Me
IG: @matteo.banchi
Hey there, I'm the Italian dreamer from the heart of Milano. 🇮🇹
With a laid-back personality and an open mind, I'm on a lifelong mission to squeeze every drop of joy out of this beautiful thing called life.
I'm head over heels for people, nature, and happiness. My daily mantra? Hunt for smiles, soak up wisdom, and embrace new adventures at every turn. Feelings and emotions? My love language, especially that crazy, beautiful thing called "love" in all its mesmerizing forms – it's what keeps us connected, right?
You'll find my heart dancing to the rhythm of three true passions: writing, jet-setting, and capturing moments through my lens. These passions are my North Star, and they light up my daily life. It's why I decided to chase horizons and document the world's most fantastic tales, connecting with inspiring souls along the way and framing the world's most breathtaking scenes.
I've dived from the skies over Egypt, traced the serene peaks of the Alps, witnessed a symphony of colors while sailing into a sunset on the open ocean, and poured every ounce of my soul into the incredible journey of life.
And you know what? This is just the beginning. Life's an endless treasure chest, and I'll never stop exploring its depths.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To get into close contact with societies and cultures that sometimes could be very different and above all to transform my travel experiences in life experiences.
It creates a social interaction that goes far beyond anything else.
Also, i'm always searching for people, stories and feelings to get some inspiration for my writings.
Nothing is a bigger pleasure than to show Milano and its little surprises that no one expect ever.
Interests
Writing, Traveling, Photography, Sailing, Making new friends, Reading, Cooking, Loosing time on a hammock. I like to party, share love, dance on a good song or near a bonfire. Parachuting, windsurfing, sking, bungee jumping, free climbing, and every other sport that can give a strong emotion. I like deep blue eyes, romantic moments, a glass of wine watching the sunset. I like to listen to people.
I like to smile, to cry, to feel free and to share. Playing instruments like didgeridoo, walking through an abandoned place, stargazing and soul gazing. I like the sun in summer and the snow in winter. I like the rhythm of the drums on a beach near the sea, the heartbeat of a girl in love, the sound of the rain.
I love time 'cause its the only thing i'll never have back, and i love to spend it well so when i'll run out of it i will still able to say, i'm truly happy.
Music, Movies, and Books
I love all kinds of music, from the sound coming out from the bucket of a street performer, to the piano playing among the dark blue curtains in the "Blue Note".
Books and movies are two different ways to enter a glimpse of reality that is personal and amazing.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
February 14, 2008. Everything dark under the plane except for the top of far far away mountain. The snow there reflecting the last sun ray and coloring in pink a corner of sky. Jump means to throw out any problem that will be catch by the parachute and left in the sky.
Stargazing in the desert, lying on the sand. A giant must have lost the key to the infinite between two dunes.
Taken decisions suddenly and without logic, because they have always been the best.
