Hi everyone! My name is Paolo and I am a professional violin player, currently a member of the orchestra of Turin's Opera house. I'm living in Turin, a beautiful city in northern Italy near the Alps. I am a very laid back kind of guy, but I'm also very easygoing so I do enjoy being with people and making new friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling and many times I realized that a single suggestion made the quality of my staying much higher. Plus I'm really interested in languages so I always find chances to practice them. I find this idea really useful!

Music, Movies, and Books

I made my passion for music into a job, so I like a lot of stuff. I'm not too picky, I like a lot of kinds of music -as long as it's well made. Lately I've been listening some mongolian throat singing.
First two movies that popped in my head right now are Lord of the Rings and Nuovo Cinema Paradiso.
Favorite book? Tao Te Ching
