About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"The very basic core of man's living spirit is his passion for adventure.The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon,for each day to have a new different sun"

ABOUT ME

Let's try to write something here...I'm an easygoing guy, I like meeting new people, travelling, obviously, doing sports. Ok, that's not origninal at all. Maybe something more interesting is written below:)

PHILOSOPHY

"The very basic core of man's living spirit is his passion for adventure.The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon,for each day to have a new different sun" Into the wild, Alex's letter

You are infinite love, intelligence and wisdom, the universe experiencing itself as a human "be"-ing. YOU ARE FREE. (anonymous wrote on an Irish train)

We do not have the world as an inheritance from our fathers, but we rented it from our children (Roberto Benigni, I hope this translation makes sense)

Friendship improves happiness, and abates misery, by doubling our joys, and dividing our grief (Joseph Addison)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I believe in this projects, it seems to reflect my ideas of relathionship between people, based on mutual respect and trust.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not a lot, but I've hosted some surfers last year. A great experience! Unfortunately this year I couldn't host nobody because of the university accomodation rules. Nobody overnight unfortunately. But next year I will move in a shared flat where I will able to host, and I will be also closer to the heart of Milan!

Interests

I'm interested in everything is different, in different cultures, in different ideas, in different places, in different stories, in different people who tell their stories. I love especially history, history of ideas and philosophy, architecture. I like watching movies, listening to music, talking and joking, sharing my experiences. I love cooking (sometimes) and travelling, not just with the body, but also through the mind. I like a lot of sports: swimming, cycling, hiking, running, skiig tennis, basketball, volleyball.

Music, Movies, and Books

Right now I like very different kind of music, from pop to italian singer-songwrite, it depends on the situation and on my mood. I like reading, but in the last years I had a strange attitude towards books, in fact I don't read for weeks, then I find a book which seems cool and I read it in two days. What about movies? I like action films and thrillers, my favourite tv series are Criminal Minds, Cold Case, NCIS, Without a Trace.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think that my travel as a backpacker in Turkey with three friends, from Istanbul to the south, through Cappadocia, Pamukkale and Ephesus was one of the best thing I ever done. Especially some wiews in Cappadocia at the dusk were incredible. I fall in love with this country, its people and its landscapes.
