I'm an italian guy, more precisely a guy from south of Italy. I grow up in Barletta among grape fields and makeshift football fields. I attend the master degree course in material science in Bari and I'm involved in volunteering and politics. I'm very intrested in culture, music, human rights. I belong to ARCI Carlo Cafiero, a cultural association and with the other members we have organized a summer music festival for 9 years and tons of other activities in Barletta.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people from all over te world in order to learn, talk, discuss and better understand the reality.
I want to make real sharing and gift culture.

Interests

I like nature and natural environment, for this reason I'm interested in being in touch with that going on mountains, growing vegetables fields or lying on a seashore in spring. I like do sports because I think is one of the secret for happiness. I'm active in volunteering in order to guarantee social justice, because happiness is real when everyone is happy.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a lot of italian singers and groups (from older ones like Battisti, PFM, De André and Battiato to contemporary ones like Lo stato Sociale, ODP, 99Posse, Caparezza) and other-countries singer as well (RHCP, Two doors Cinema Club, Johnny Cash, Gramatik, Manu Chao, SKA-P, Sigur Ros, John Coltrane)

My favorite movies are "La haine", "I, Daniel Blake", Boris (italian tv series), Tarantino's movie, "American History X"

I really like 20th century italian literature about factory workers ("letteratura di fabbrica"), Erri de Luca, Herman Hesse, André Gorz

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watch the sunset after a 30 km-hiking on Alps

Teach, Learn, Share

Share moments, songs, words, drawings.
I think teaching and learning are not two separate things: you have to learn even when you teach something
