Overview
About Me
What can I say? I am a really outgoing person. I love talking to people, literally, I could talk to anyone about anybody. I grew up in Italy. My mother is Italian and my father is from Nigeria. Three years ago I moved to London. I love this city. You can ALWAYS meet people from all over the world and listen such different stories. It's in this city that I really discovered myself and my passion about different countries and cultures.
For more than 2 years I worked for Chipotle, an american chain of mexican food. Serious and really demanding job (became manager along the way) but at least really amazing people!
Then last summer I decided to leave and to try things in a different way:
2 easy jobs instead of 1 really hard.
It worked!!
The world is too big and I want to see the most of it, therefore I decided to get a ticket to Goa as a start and then we'll see what happens :D
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I was not aware about Couchsurfing until a friend of mine told me that he went to Lithuania in this way. I couldn't believe it. This thing is exactly for me, exactly what I am looking for. Hosting people from all around the world and listening many different stories and having the pleasure to stay with somebody from the local town which you are planning to visit. Having the possibility to know exactly what to do to live exactly the same life that people in other cities live on a daily basis, just for a few days! It's for me! I am looking forward to get along this!
Interests
Languages... I think I am able to say "how are you" or "i love you" at least in 10 languages :D

I get informed easily about what happens in the world.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love System of a Down ( Best band ever), I went to their concert this year and I felt like in a paradise! I am Amy Winehouse addicted (her voice is too relaxing for me) and obviously I love Bob Marley as well. About music I would describe myself really dynamic! I could go hanging out listening to rock music, or I could go clubbing (due to my Italian background I like Techno music :D) or going to dance for real... like Hip Hop R&B places... OR PSYTRANCE!!! I have music in my blood, I would say I am a quite good dancer when rhythm get special (maybe because my father was a professional dancer!)
I am movies addicted too. I can not even go to sleep unless I put a movie ongoing. Quentin Tarantino is the best. But I obviously watched so many more different movies.
Books... I think I should read more... Definitely! I haven't read that much in my life. You will laugh for sure after what I will have said. My first book at all was Twilight, then Eclipse, New Moon and Breaking Dawn... All this when I was 14 and after I haven't read for a while... Then when I turned 19, thanks to a friend, I started to read again, but this time another kind of books... Defiantly! I read some books about the Beat Generation... "The basketball diaries" and after "on the road". Then I read "Siddharta" and "artificial paradises" of Baudelaire. (Tough one to understand in my opinion).
In the end, because I lost a bet, I had to read "Fifty Shades of Grey".
I guess that's all...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Buying my flowerstick
Teach, Learn, Share
I know almost all the capitals in this world. I met just one person that knows more capitals than me (obviously after i studied them!). I would love to teach, learn and share anything about geography!
What I Can Share with Hosts
Right now I have a double bedroom for myself alone.
I have a large double bed and a couch as well. I can share the couch for sure. About the bed... I wouldn't like to seem the kind of guy that exploits coachsurfing to have a girl in his bed (or boys, depends from sexual orientation) and.......
Therefore, I would say that for the moment I don't share it.
About anything else, In spanish there is a proverb : MI CASA ES TU CASA!
I will share everything: food, beers, bathroom, laptop if needed... whatever! I would share my Oystercard as well if possible!
