About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Making things happen

ABOUT ME

"Are you a funny person? Serious, contemplative, wacky, adventurous, whimsical? Having difficulty deciding what to write?"
Probably all of the above...

PHILOSOPHY

"If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, I sometimes have a busy family life, but so far I keep a 100% response level to all requests coming in!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Limited due to parenthood, however the whole family has couch-surfed a few places around Europe (Berlin, Italy, Holland, Switzerland...).

Interests

Too many for my own good! From an academic point of view, the nature of human cognition and behaviour, altered states of consciousness and mental potentials. Moreover, arts (above all film), music (I play the guitar), traveling and foreign cultures.

  • cooking
  • vegetarian
  • traveling

  • languages
  • budget travel

Music, Movies, and Books

All that's good, from Italian neo-realism to Myazaki (Japanese animation) to... well, everything related to the culture & subcultures of the 1960's. Psychedelia!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The falls of Iguazu, Brazil, is the most wonderous nature experience I've ever had... It must have been said a 1000 times before, but standing in front of the "Gargantua de Diablo" (Devil's throat) literally takes your breath away. Go there.

Teach, Learn, Share

Possibly some vegetarian cooking. Budget traveling and how to survive 10+ years as a student.
Always looking to learn the languages of mind & speech.
