About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'd like to exchange culture and life experiences with people living all over the world, preferable my contemporaries

ABOUT ME

I am very interested in knowing habits, culture and the way of thinking of people coming from all over the world. I think it's very useful to exchange with each other some interests, life experiences and the places where we live. I am nurse in a Mental Health Department in a hospital of the venetian area. I am very curious but in a positive sense. It's to say I love to discover, in a general sense. I 'd like to know people coming from every countries of the world, possibily my contemporaries and I'd like to have the opportunity to improve my english and french languages. Thanks a lot to everyone who will get in touch with me.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in God and in Freedom, even if nowadays they are challenges. I'd like to know what people think about these two subjects, which are good grounds for me. One of the reason of my couchsurfing joining is to meet with some different ways of life and thinking. How do you feel with the present world?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am planning to host, but I have to organize my space, because I live in a little apartment. The place where I live is a nice one: quiet, far from city noise, not too crowded. At the present I can help the couchsurfers to find out best solution for their journey nearby.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None

Interests

I am on a little amatorial theatral group named "Il carro dei Frangugliotti" (Frangugliotti's cart). Frangugliotti is a fantasy name, which means something pecular for each one of the members. We performed once last summer and it was a successful event. Then, my deeper interests for human being and the world bring me to turn my attention to the Antroposophy, as given to us by Rudolf Steiner. It 's a pecular spiritual wisdom, dealing with every fields of the human being experience and of Knowledge and it draws in profile a pecular cosmogony. I love also medicine and Nursing in general, and psichiatry in particular. Then I like walking, reading, bicycling. I am a blogger. If anyone can be interested to have a look to my blog, the link is:

Music, Movies, and Books

One of my favourite movies is "A beautiful Mind" but I adore Igmar Bergman, Terry Gilliam, Michael Haneke, Tim Burton. Recently I watched a wonderful movie of Radu Mihaileanu: "Le Concert" that I can reccomend to everyone. I love classic music, the greatest composers, but I love ethnic music too. My favourite singers and composers are : John Zorn, Paul Motian, Jan Garbarek, Bill Frisell, Joe Lovano, Keith Jarrett, Michael Nyman, Glenn Gloud, Van Morrison, Pink Floyd, Elisa, Tiziano Ferro, Fabrizio De Andrè. As to my favourite books ....I love philosophy, religion and biographies in general. But also the classic russian literature and authors like James Joyce, Kafka, Hermann Hesse, Balzac, Jack London .... I'm fond of fairy-tales and of esoterism. I love Edgar Allan Poe and the mistery literature. But I am also very rational. As I said above, I am involved also in medicine, nursing and psichiatry for professional aims and not only.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Remember, we are a gamble!! the streets of life go up and down...sometime we can feel inadeguate, but every thing changes as time goes by, so relax your mind!! Life itself is an amazing thing, however it turns out.. An incredible opportunity to discover the wonderful world. Do you agree with me?

Teach, Learn, Share

I ' d like to improve my english and french, but I am very interested to know the spirit of the language of every country in the world. I am available to teach italian language. I can share some job experiences as well.
