About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling inside me

ABOUT ME

"Good Italian Man"...at least this is written in the reference left from mr. Khotso :)
I like to improve myself to offer the best to people around me. Very open to critics on me, maybe sometimes too much. Surely crazy and happy for this!

PHILOSOPHY

Everytime I find a philosophy for my life is (unfortunately) already time to change it!
The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao.
The name that can be named is not the eternal name....by the greatest Lao Tse

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like hosting people, cook for them, take care of them and ensure they will have great time in my house and in town. I also participate to the CS events as much as I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted different people both in my apartment in Milan and when I was living in Abu Dhabi, where I was also very active in the AD CS community and events like dinners, camping, drinking nights.

Interests

In the past I was really crazy for travelling, as soon as I had the chance I took my backpack and try to mix myself with anybody on the other side of the world.
Nowadays I prefer much more having fun with close friends through dinners, chats, short trips and sharing emotions together.

I like sport: boxing, skiing, jogging and football and riding my motorbike (CBR 600) and go racing with this in Monza circuit, near my hometown.
Reading books is another big passion mainly the ancient classic writers and philosophers. And I write, I do this since I was a small child, it is the best way to express myself.

Teach, Learn, Share

My wish is (at least one day...) to be able to find the middle way for all things I do and learn to manage well all the opposites sides living in me.
