About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living a life of purpose - Secondary mission: finding a travel partner on my same wavelength

ABOUT ME

I'm from Italy, where I lived for the first 30 years of my life. Then an unexpected job offer took me to England in summer 2004. After 6 years spent between the Midlands and London, I felt the urge to win back my freedom, at least for a while, and went on a career break during which I have travelled around the world. Now I am back in Central London.

Ever seeking purpose in life, I like to talk about everything and nothing, a good conversation is always a balm to my soul. I love to exchange ideas and opinions, as I am genuinely interested to understand how other people think and what they have to say.
Activity-wise, I love outdoor life (walks, picnics and being in touch with nature), art and knowledge (museums and cultural events) and good food (I enjoy cooking and hunting for a good restaraunt is always fun!).

PHILOSOPHY

A drama-free life is a happy life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to have a more active role in CS and host many fellow travellers.

Interests

Traveling, reading, Internet, music, cooking, dining. Sports I like to practise: soccer, tennis, basketball.

Music, Movies, and Books

For brevity's sake, I'll mention just one per category.

Book: Nelson DeMille's "Up Country"
Movie: "Office Space"
Music: impossible to pick one, I like too many songs, too many singers. Music is a faithful companion in my life, couldn't live without it.
