ABOUT ME

My opinion is you already have too much information about me ;)
Ok, I'd say normally I'm a phlegmatic, sociable and practical person, but my mood is extremely variable! Sometimes rapidly... so you could find me from a very good mixer, talkative and funny, up (down?) to silent, solitary and contemplative. Don't worry, I tend to keep being at least friendly in any case :P

Well, if this is the 'all about me'... why are there other fields down there?!?!

PHILOSOPHY

Is there any user interested in it?
If yes, we'll talk about it...

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Filling up the fields of the profile at moment...hopefully hosting&surfing in the future. Hopefully more on the surfing side ;)

Guests: CS is NOT a free Booking.com! If that is your approach, consider another host.

兴趣

It would have been much easier if they were NON-Interests! So, things I am mostly interested in:
Science (both theoretical and experimental aspects... yes, I like doing those silly experiments you heard about... no, I do not normally travel with everything needed to exploit them!)
Reading (more or less every kind of books, but novels and historical essays are probably my favourites). Sometimes also in languages I don't know, but with some Indo-European root...I think I have something with deciphering ;)
Swimming, Biking, Basketball/Water pool playing...combine them in the same day (possibly not in those liquid cages... how do you call them? Right, swimming pools! :D) and you'll make a happy man of me!
Ah, of course, Travelling!!!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Never thought I would be asked this to fill a CS profiling but let me think, some of these might count?

- I marathon-swam tracks (5+ km) across islands in the Mediterranean ... Swam in 3 of the 7 "seas" (and working on the other 4 :P) and quite a number of lakes and rivers too, including the freezing Lake Tahoe in late Autumn
- Hiked the Waterfalls near Seattle in half the recommended time, to be back just in time for my flight in the afternoon
- Got drunk in the night in Washington DC to catch a flight the day after in NYC
- Tour-de-force visited a few cities during 24 hours lay overs, sight-seeing no-stop
- Biked 100km across hill roads and expressways on a MTB to participate to an environment-protection march
- Drove 2000 km solo Italy-Netherlands, in one go
