CURRENT MISSION

Bringing lightness to life.

ABOUT ME

Oh well.
How about that.
How come a forever changing soul is supposed to describe itself?
Everyday is a new opportunity to discover and reinterpret myself.
What I can tell you, though, is some of my favorite moments.
Like going out with someone to have a coffee and a long and purposeless existential conversation.
Like using my bicycle to get to the places I have to go.
Like reading under the trees and going for a walk just for the sake of it.
I like food with lots of vegetables, and I hate the sound of cars and television.
Recently I've started playing saxophone on the streets, and this activity has been bringing me many unexpected moments, stories, hugs and friends.
I think that nowadays, if not always, what I'm trying to do in my life is to find deepness and meaningful connections with what is around me, and to look for poetry in the corners of the seconds.
In the mix of my paralyzing fears and my rompants of proactivity, I like to think that I seek to contribute for some good in this world.
Good vibes, good thoughts, tender emotions.
And some fun, for what it is worth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Let's go for a walk, shall we?
I'm unfortunally unable to provide you with a couch.
For now.
But I can share moments.
Show you around, be your trip mate, if you wish.

Interests

I'm really interested in having a good, nice talk in a caffee, through which I can learn more about other people and about myself.
I'm interested in arts, playing music, writing, I like anthropology and hugs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had the opportunity to be in a medicinal ritual where they ministered the Ayahuasca tea. It was one of the most amazing things I have done.
