About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"Livin' the life I was born to live, and givin' it all I've got to give"

ABOUT ME

I've been very lucky, since my parents took me in half of Europe when I was a child; that made me a very curious person, attracted by everything that is different from my native culture. Now that I grew up, I continue travelling on my own, anytime I can.

I don't have a television (it's just brain poison here), and I'm not into football (can you believe it?).
I like sarcasm.
I play the guitar and the drums, but what I really love the most is riding my motorbike until my back screams for mercy.

I can't resist crazy ideas.

PHILOSOPHY

Maybe I won't be able to make the sun shine, but at least I'll learn to ride under the rain!

Live to ride - Ride to live

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host, and surf on my holydays

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've heard about couchsurfing in a radio program, and I liked the idea so much!
Even though I'm not a newbie anymore, my experience has been amazing so far!

Interests

Places I've never been, stories I've never heard, museums, history, music, landscapes, motorbikes, guitars, a good drink. Not necessarily in this order.

I love castles, ruins and all the kinds of old stuff.

Music, Movies, and Books

Speaking of music, I love heavy metal, rock, progressive... and anything else that worths a listen.
I enjoy literature, mainly novels (Anne Rice, J.R.R. Tolkien, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Chuck Palahniuk...) but also comedies (Shakespeare and Oscar Wilde are my favs).
My favorite movie is Dogville, by Lars Von Trier.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Friend of mine: "I need a serious break, would you go to Costa Rica for a month?"
me: "let's buy tickets! now!"

One crazy girl once asked me to join her in a trip from Verona to Florence by bike (actually it was just a part of a much longer trip, but hey - this is my profile afterall)
I was completely untrained.
I did it anyway.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to learn a few words in your language, how you cook, your traditions... I can teach you the same things as an Italian.
