ABOUT ME

I grew up in the centre of Palermo with some seagulls that flew and screamed upon the road, but now I'm living with my dog in a small village in the North-East of Piedmont.
I cannot describe myself when looking "into" the mirror. People finally say I'm not so bad!

PHILOSOPHY

Everything happens for a reason.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting and surfing when I can, it depends on weeks and job.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing helped me at the beginning of my Erasmus experience, when I had no place to stay in France, I was then hosted for three days by a student who became one of my best friends. Since that moment I use it when I can, hosting and surfing when I can.

Interests

Read, write, listen to good music, sing and play guitar, watch good movies, walk in the nature with Alpe, try to improve my English...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitch-hiking from Umbria (in the centre of Italy) to Palermo with 7 euros in my pockets and in less than 24 hours. Roaming and wwoofing in the Andalusian countryside for two months.
Walking the French way to Santiago de Compostela.
Falling in love and deciding to move upon the Piedmontese hills, before breaking off the relationship and finding myself happy and in the good place.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could help foreign couchsurfer learn Italian and in return be introduced to other languages.
Anyway, if we have something to share, it will be easy to find out it at the right time!
