ABOUT ME

'I   hardly  know,  sir,  just  at  present. At  least  I  know  who  I  WAS  when  I  got  up  this  morning,   but  I  think  I  must  have  been  changed  several  times  since  then.'   (Alice in Wonderland)

I usually spend my whole day writing&dreaming.

PHILOSOPHY

I limiti del mio linguaggio significano i limiti del mio mondo // The limits of my language mean the limits of my world

Ludwig Wittgenstein

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've had some (great) experiences as a surfer, and now, since I live with an experienced host, i've started to host as well.

Interests

Performing arts, performance art, visual art, cinema, (good) tv series (netflix and stuff), electronic and indie rock music, contemporary dance, yoga, fitness, powerlifting, gender studies and queer activism, sharing economy, good vegetarian and vegan food.

Reading, travelling, camping, spending slepless nights drinking and talkin', laughing, sleepin' late on sunday morning, learning something new, going on the swing, stargazing, working late, trying to become smart, meeting interesting and ironic people.

Cats, horses, people and animals in general. Language&languages. Curiosity.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

An unforgettable trip through France and Spain (I left Italy with my car and came back only with the register...well, also with new friends and stories to tell).
I performed in an Etruscan necropolis and in a desert.
I spent a couple of weeks in an occupied theatre.
I've seen lot of monkeys takin' a bath in the middle of the Japanese Alps.
I've seen unbelievable lights in the restless center of Tokyo and the exact moment when fall has come in Nikko.
Once, I met two superheroes on a roof.

And, of course, the one that I have not yet done.

(Anyway, I'm getting used to turn my life upside-down every year.)

Teach, Learn, Share

Ok, I'd like to learn...lot of things! At the moment: languages (I know, pretty ambitious), how to sew dresses&costumes, different kind of activities (maybe climbing?)...

I can teach proper Italian diction :D
Creative writing, italian language (ok, maybe main sentences and some tongue-twisters), how to cook some Italian dishes, ...actually I can speak for hours and try to share my knowledge, or, better, my passion for theatre and perfoming arts ... i don't know if i can call it "teaching"!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook vegetarian/vegan meals.
I can talk and I can even shut up, eventually.
I think I'm polite and quite respectful of other people's space.
