About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Save the world!

ABOUT ME

I'm a young man discovering this amazing world and its different cultures. I love meeting new people (even more if they are very different from me) and knowing what they dream about. I am a lot into languages because when you speak with people in their language you connect with them. I love cooking because cooking for somebody is the best way to demonstrate your love for them. I love music and I think music should come along every moment (and in every place) of our life. Lately I am more and more into surfing and nature, this is great feeling!

PHILOSOPHY

Good things need time!
May all beings be happy.
The only obstacle to my learning is my education.
Hakuna matata.
Life has no sense, but it is great, isn't it?

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: everything, it depends on the moment of the day. I span from standard jazz to alternative rock, passing by classical music and pop.
Books, or better authors: Tiziano Terzani, Italo Calvino, Bruce Chatwin.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Creat a student organization for language teaching based on CS principles :-) More than 1000 members so far :-)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my culture, my travels and my ideas. I can teach some "ricette di nonna "(granma's recipes), a couple of guitar chords and words and expression of the languages I speak. I am willing to learn everything that I do not know: from manga to human rights, everything is worth to learn!

What I Can Share with Hosts

At least a meal, a beer and endless conversations. Apart from that, the sky is the limit :-)

Countries I’ve Visited

Cuba, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, India, Ireland, Morocco, Nepal, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, United Kingdom, United States
