About Me

ABOUT ME
I'm a day dreamer, calm and gentle human. I spend my days thinking and caring about people, social issues, Art and what it means to live.
I guess I just want to be happy and free, living my life deliberatly and coexisting in peace with those around me and that's why I travel.
I've studied Politics but have no idea what I'd like to be when I grow up. I don't think fixed plans work for me. I love listening to people's stories and writing.

PHILOSOPHY

“This is what you shall do; Love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men, go freely with powerful uneducated persons and with the young and with the mothers of families, read these leaves in the open air every season of every year of your life, re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency not only in its words but in the silent lines of its lips and face and between the lashes of your eyes and in every motion and joint of your body.”
W. Whitman

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Had the courage to look inside myself and decide to change.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm very Socratic, I know nothing, but what I know I wish to share.
I'd like to learn everything I don't know yet. Right now I'm curious about meditation and mindfullness, how to grow a vegetable garden, minimalism and sustainable lifestyle.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Italian cuisine and music
Endless conversations about the meaning of life (?)
