Overview
About Me
I grew up in a small village (2000 inhabitant) and now I am living in London, it's been 2 years since I am here. I was having medical studies in Italy, but I left because it wasn't the right choice. Right now I am a full time extra in movies and adverts; it's funny and I love the fact that gives me the opportunity to meet different people, I love the randomness of it and I love the freedom that it leaves me! One day I might be a soldier in the first world war and the next day I might be a cowboy!
For the last two years I have been taking singing lessons because since I was 4 that's all I wanted to do.. but there was no opportunity in my small village :)
I am a full time Movie Extra that is planning to become a Digital Nomad within 3 years.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
All happened randomly, I was looking to some comments on Facebook and saw someone talking about it, so I went to check!
Now that's how I found it, but the reason why I am here, it's pretty simple and probably is the same reason for everybody else: I would love to travel and saving myself from the expense to go to an hotel takes off one of the excuses that I give myself before taking any tickets for any place in the world!
I am interested in travelling not only to gather experience across the world, but mostly to meet new people with different backgrounds and experience. I love to teach and to learn and travelling would be an amazing way to do both..

Music, Movies, and Books
This is hard! Music wise I listen to pretty much everything and I know that a lot of people say it and do not mean it! But I can listen the Don Juan from Mozart and then go for Caramelldansen!
In this period I am listening a lot of progressive rock, in particular from a band called Tesseract (Which I would love to see live!!!) .
Same thing for music, I watch pretty much anything that I can get interested to.
One night I might find myself watching one of those action movies where there are more explosions than words and the day after I might sit down and watch Strange Circus from Sion Sono or some weird stuff from Takashi Mike!
I have a thing for fantasy movies/ tv series tho, Lord of the rings being one of my favourite of all times and Games of Thrones in the podium.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I saw many big actors. I have "flirted" with Tom Hardy. I found a beautiful south american girl that became my girlfriend. I have been a droid in Star Wars. I saw Tom Cruise jumping from a building during a scene.
Teach, Learn, Share
One of my main qualities is my self control, when I was 16 I started studying ancient philosophies and for some reason I started applying some of them.
I can teach you why worry too much about things make no sense and how it can be easily countered with a bit of will and rational thinking.
If you are interested in some martial arts basic stuff, I am a brown belt in karate.
Teaching Italian and basic maths is something that I love to do and you are more than welcome to ask for a lesson.
I can teach you a little bit about Italian history and culture; at the same time I would love to hear the history of your country.
I love sharing experience and it's very rare to find a subject that I do not want to talk about, even if it's generally considered "private". Of course by saying that I don't pretend other to do the same, it's just a small thing that I like to say...in case there are other people with the same attitude, out there.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share a night out, a beautiful and funny day in the park, a deep thought or just a beer.
To be honest, I would be more than happy to find someone that is willing and desire to share a bit of silence, maybe in front of a stunning sky or at a jazz concert.
