About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Crossing the borders

ABOUT ME

A good friend of mine told me once "travelling is like an illness. It makes you get itchy feet".
Obviously I got it.
And my feet are bringing me everywhere they can go, when they have the possibility.
I'm a video editor and a camera operator. I'm interested in stories, landscapes, faces, idiomatic phrases and puns.
Riding my bike or my motorcycle without knowing the way, gives me an awesome feeling.

PHILOSOPHY

Do not stop to be curious about the world.
Life is not about finding yourself. It's about creating yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm not able to guarantee a couch right now, but Im still available for a coffee and a chat.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is definitely the best way to travel. But just because there is a bigger idea behind.

Interests

I'm interested in travels, of course, and music, blues, rock&roll, raggae and jazz. I love wines (actually im still thinking I should study enology at the university), coffees and obviously a good book with. I read freely from Orwell to Calvin&Hobbes, from H.Miller to H.Potter, so no prejudices please.
Sports are not outside of my life, especially if I can get some exciting moments from them.
I'm a terrible singer, but I'm still thinking I should be the new Aretha Franklin of my generation.
For a while I thought I was interested in drums, but after I discovered drummers - that do for you the work and are also nice to see.
