Overview
About Me
Hello everyone! How’s it going, today?
I live in a small, silent village called “Cividale Mantovano”, not too far from Mantova and next to Sabbioneta. I’m the man with the face full of mud. My curiosity and thirst of life has brought me around the world a few times and don’t want to stop - I’m going to live free for the rest of my days. I went to Canada in summer 2016, then took a gap year at 18 and backpacked by myself around Australia and Thailand. Now I’m home with my parents and live a quiet although restless life. Have you ever had the terrible feeling of wasting your time? While I struggle to find myself a way through this jungle of adults, I play guitar, read novels, take care of my vegetable garden, write, cook, practise yoga, meditation and self sufficiency. I’m doing my best to stay away from an ordinary, stable, boring existence. I’m on my way to inner peace, wisdom and spiritual freedom. I believe in living each one of our days as if it’s going to be our last, laughing, travelling, loving and helping each other :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Aren’t we all supposed to help each other instead of hating ourselves?
After all, we’re all stuck in the same traffic, going nowhere.
