ABOUT ME

I am a funny guy, enjoying doing my part to see people laughing. I always have something in the bucket: something to tell, weird stories, past experiences, or even something weird about people i met in my trips, not mentioning plans of new ones. I'm original and creative, currently trying to run a business with handmade products made of recycled inner tubes and clinchers (bike stuff, for those with other passions).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I prefare to share a roof and a meal with foreigners during my trips and have some time for myself just when and where I do really feel like.

Interests

Practising sport is what keeps most of my spare time busy, i like to try every kind of activity i can. I've been a bicycle rider for years, i love climbing and skiing but, officially, I am an orienteer (if you have never heard about it we can do it together once we meet) . I also like reading (books as much as blogs) and watching movies. I can dance ballroom dance but I seldom go for it.. I might have even forgotten, then!
Sometimes, I strum my acoustic guitar (poor her) but i am very bad at it.

Music, Movies, and Books

i love country and folk music, but also italian music from the 90s', the music i listen to depends basically on the mood and the surrounding.
my favourite movies are Pearl Harbour, Lucy and the Firm, Sydney Pollock is one of my favourite directors.
amongst the best books i've ever read there are Into The Wild and the trilogy His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman, Short story of nearly everything by bill Bryson, Thinking fast and slow by Daniel kahneman and then comes my collection of autobiographies of bike riders. My avg is 15 books/year.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

walking from home until i reached the top of a mountain and coming back home after 12 and more hours no stop and 50 km in my legs, then scuba diving is another thing i really enjoyed and then.. What should i say? I did and saw a huge amount of things, i could describe them but not the way it happened nor how i felt, everything's amazing, it depends on your approach to daily life

Teach, Learn, Share

there are two statements i strongly believe in: first of all that "sharing is caring", that is something i got to know while travelling abroad, secondly that knowledge is what makes you richer without subtracting anything to anyone, and something you can share without splitting nor losing nothing but gaining more instead.
