Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
to get lost in Finland
ABOUT ME
I think I am easy going and open minded. I like to be surrounded by nature. Sometimes, I may need the sea. Sometimes, I may need a beer. Between, I wander the streets. I get lost easily, but so far I have always found my way back :)
PHILOSOPHY
To be challenged by different ways of thinking and living.
I think that communication is important, but understanding is not always easy, possible or even necessary. In one line:
"Listen and try to understand. Respect always"
That also applies to oneself.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have hosted, I recommend CS to my friends, and I will try to surf some couches while travelling in Finland
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
During the month of June 2012 I hosted as many people as I could in Trieste (Italy). I joined my last couchsurfer to travel with in Croatia. I have got so many good things from all the people who visited me, thank you!
Interests
Sharing. Need to walk to feel human. Try to practice sports. Like laughing and good beer. Enjoy Italian food. Finnish roots. Curious about Oriental culture. Fond of science, technology, languages and boardgames.

Music, Movies, and Books
music: jazz, indie, blues, folk, pop
movies: Italian old ones, Woody Allen
books: Thoreau, Dostoyevsky, Thomas Mann, Hemingway... not to stick to one author. I would like to devote some time to writing.
Anyway, I am always happy to try something different :)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Travelled in Istria (Croatia) without worries, without rush. Enjoying every moment and making the best out of it. Slept in a small boat.
Spending the night walking in Venice after missing the last train back home. Venice is much more romantic, powerful and calm at night with all the lights.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach some Spanish or Italian language and culture together. I can also dive into math and science, but this is not usually what people ask for, so I keep it for myself. I studied math in Spain and Italy, got a little bit tired of so much understanding and currently I am more into changing reality. Focused on personal development and information technology.
I like to learn all kind of new things.
Otherwise, I think that the best way to learn from each other is while sharing.
