CURRENT MISSION

figure it all out. Or at least a little bit of it.

ABOUT ME

I love to try new things and new places. After I graduate this Spring, I'm planning to travel to Morocco to continue my Arabic language and Arab music studies on the nay (a reed flute).

PHILOSOPHY

I try as hard as I can to be happy and to make those around me happy. I believe that that is one of the most important things in life, if not the most important.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I first used couchsurfing when I was a wee little 18-year old traveling around Europe for the first time and I fell in love. The chance to meet locals and explore someone's real life experience of a place is so much more memorable, unique, and special than the guidebook/ hotel version (although I like that too!). Later, when I moved to Italy, couchsurfing helped me meet some locals who became some of my best friends, further solidifying my theory that couchsurfing people are mostly the best people. Over the past few years I haven't been very involved in Couchsurfing, but I'm looking forward to getting back into it!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I like to think that I am comfortable making anywhere my temporary home. I have slept on many couches, many floors, and in many dorms. I've slept in tents, on the beach, in trains, in cars, even in one of Stanford University's auditoriums for a night. I also have made my home, couches, and floors home for those who need them.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

The most amazing thing that I have ever experienced, and the thing that continues to confuse me the most, is love, in all of its forms.

Insegna, impara, condividi

I know a little bit about a lot of things, especially those pertaining to my interests, and love to share that with others, but mainly I love to learn.
At the moment, I really want to learn more about cooking, lucid dreams, and strengthening the eyes from the inside.
I also want to further my yoga practice (or rather, re-commence it) and learn about plants & herbal medicine. and tango.

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

English, Italian, Spanish, and Arabic, Milanese and Northern and Southern Californian cultures, lots of laughs, lots of little paths towards self healing, nerdy musical knowledge, tidbits about the craft of violin-making.
