Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
no mission here, I'm walking upside down
ABOUT ME
I'm italian but I don't feel italian, more like a citizen of the world. I traveled a lot, and I do it whenever I can. Don't know what to say here in this little pixels box. I'm a direct person, and open, you can read me as a book 'cause what I do is what I say and viceversa, but I don't feel like closing myself within this description, face to face experience is the real one
PHILOSOPHY
wow... such a question... and right now I'm in the specific moment when I'm trying to get news answers than the previous I got. A shared sense of being helpful to those who have less than what I've had 'til now is part of the frame. But it's part of the path to build yet too
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm a beginner. But I appreciate the basic idea here. Which is sharing experience, getting in touch with people in a randomic way, being open and sincere, traveling and helping people to travel even saving some money, I think this is a great thing to do
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
my first time around
Interests
Cinema, photography - Luigi Ghirri, Pinkhassov, comics, cooking & eating, travels, learning languages, politcs, history, reading literature, the new tendence towards environment support but I'm a beginner here too, alternative approach to classical practices, as couchsurfing is to travel for instance, but many others, like getting food avoiding big chains, writing, human relationships, Bob Dylan, and many others

Music, Movies, and Books
I can't do this, too much stuff, just some random names, Stanley Kubrick, THE director, I recently discovered another one I love is Portoguese and not Brazilian as I thought, Joao Cesar Monteiro. Then Lars Von Trier, Wong Kar-Wai or books Don De Lillo, his Underworld, and his others too, Elias Canetti, Daniele Del Giudice, music Bob Dylan, I traveled the world to see his concerts and met so many people with whom established a friendship that became more a brotherood, Ani Di Franco, Cat Power, Fabrizio De André, Caetano Veloso, comics Magnus stuff, Alan Moore's Watchmen and V for Vendetta, but really, too many names to list them all here
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
met some haborigens in Adelaide, Australia. They were playing guitar and basketing on the streets, I stopped to listen and then I start talking with them. We had a nice chat. When we were saying goodbye one of 'em shooke me a hand and said "welcome to our contry. Welcome to our contry" he repeated it. with a pause. and staring me into my eyes. It's been very intense and ancient and magnetic. In that same trip when I was in nobody's land, flying by chance on the same plane where Bob Dylan was, he stopped me to have a chat. While flying in the sky. That was intense too. The Joshua Tree desert. Writing a single long piece in a stream of consciousness moment. Becoming friend with Magnus. Seeing Times Sq. by night in the blackout days back in 2003 without any lights, seeing Las Vegas by night, from far in the distance, in the desert, the only reasonble way to live Las Vegas, a sick place, by night seeing the lights from far in the distance. And something else...
Teach, Learn, Share
if you wanna know about Bob Dylan, Stanley Kubrick I'm well trained, I'm a good cook too so some recipes are available here, and well trained about comics in general, I got thousands, I can teach you the basics of photography, and some italian if you are interested, well about me I'm curious in general but I don't claim I wanna learn about everything which would be impossible obviously, but I'm open to get into new things or knowledges
