HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Currently I cannot host (my flat is really too small!), I use CS to meet people when I am abroad, to join interesting events (such as the English Happy Hour and the Tram Party in Milan) and to show Milan and surroundings to interesting people.

BOOKS - So many books, so little time... Definitely book addict since childhood - how to forget my mother trying to sequester every piece of paper I was reading even at lunch - I am in love with Eastern European writers: Fëdor Dostoevskij, Lev Tolstoj, Nikolai Gogol, Milan Kundera, Mikhail Bulgakov (if - at your own risk - you want watch a post-industrial reinterpretation of "The Master and Margarita": http://vimeo.com/38266311). Actually I read almost everything: I have a book for every state of mind :-) My CS mission comes from "If nobody speaks of remarkable things" by Jon McGregor. MOVIES - At random... my favourite films: "Wild strawberries" by Bergman, "The fabulous destiny of Amélie Poulain" by Jeunet, "Psyco" by Hitchcock. I am still addicted to "Twin Peaks" and "X-Files" series. MUSIC - Rock, grunge and balkan!!!
