CURRENT MISSION

Do, or do not. There is no try.

ABOUT ME

I used to be a musician, a kung-fu fighter, an archeologist, a cake maker and a translator. But now I'm trying to be... a jedi.

I love to hear and tell stories. To cook and eat. And i'm trying to convince my husband to adopt a cat, or a dog, or a baby elephant.

PHILOSOPHY

Credo quoniam impossibile est

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing
