Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Live my life as good as possible!!!
ABOUT ME
I like social life, walk around, get to know new people, enjoy my time (especially my free time), good food, cooking and nature. Probably the reason of these my aptitudes is that I grew up in a small town in South of Italy close to the sea?!
After the high school I moved to Bologna where I studied finance in the University and I lived for eight years. In this time I realized that the âItalian dimensionâ was not enough for me and I felt the necessity to travel and live abroad (just in Europe for the moment, but who knows in the future?!), to learn new languages and to get to know different cultures and new people.
In general I enjoy spending time with other people, sharing my experiences and having fun with them. I really love speak and hear new ideas. Even if sometimes I am lost in my world, but as soon as I find something new and interesting I get back my vitality :)
In general I am attract from any new initiative that I find interesting and from anything that can arouse my curiosity, in general more I do and more I want to do.
Maybe I have the problem that I have too many different interests, but what can I do if I like a lot of things? :)
PHILOSOPHY
I saw the sea in calm and in storming days, I saw snow, rain and thunders, nice forests and half deserts, I saw people happy and angry, I saw love and hate, nice and bad days: what’s more amazing than life? Enjoy your time and try to feel everyday good with yourself and with every other people, try to learn everyday something and use it in your future ;)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I live the CS spirit, surfing and hosting when it is possible, often I speak about CS with my friends to let them know our community world, what are its motivation and the philosophy behind it.
In the last two years I was living around all the Europe and everywhere I had the opportunity to participate in group activity and initiatives that where organized form CSers.
I also really like CS’ discussion forums where at any time you can find (and give) tips, helps and suggestions about common life in the cities where you live or that you are going to visit.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I joined Couchsurfing in 2009, when I was living in Greece. Since that moment I always enjoyed be part of this coomunity: I had the opportunity to surf and to host CSes, to participate in several activity and initiative, to meet great people, to enjoy my time and to discover lot more about places where I have been then if I would not be a part of Couchsurfing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have seen falling stars of any colour and dimension, the beach or the middle of a wood are the best place to observe them. A tip? From my hometown you can see mostly of them looking north-east. Is it everywhere like this? I dunno! ;)
