I'm an adventurous being who loves to travel abroad, making friends worldwide, experiencing cultural exchange —sorry, I'm so predictable! I don't need to say how much I like exotic cuisines, but you ought to know that I'm intrigued by people and their dynamics, which is probably my main interest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To see the world and to meet new people with a different point of view from fellows Italians.

Interests

So many I don't even know where to start!
I'm an animal lover and activist in my small way. I do my best to respect environment, avoiding to be obsessed with it.
I have a thing about time traveling; when I start talking about it I can go on for hours and you'd better stop me because I lose any concept of time forgetting we can't actually 'travel' to get the wasted time back :P
I'm extremely curious but not as nosy as a gossiper.

Music, Movies, and Books

Just to mention a few of each:

Blur, Echo and the Bunnymen, Siouxsie and the Banshees, YYYs, Ramones, Sex Pistols, Happy Monday, Joy Division...

The Hobbit, Middlesex, The art of loving, Blake's poems, Novecento, general self-help books, Pirandello, Stevenson... I really don't have a genre, but I'm not very into best-sellers or urban fantasy. I'm currently reading "101 great philosophers" by Madsen Pirie

Lola rennt, Being John Malkovich, Inside man (Spike Lee in general), Training day, Sense and sensibility, Donnie Darko, sci-fi (especially the ones about time travels!), american and german films from the 40's...
