CURRENT MISSION Mission: enjoy life. Vision: enjoy it even more.. ABOUT ME Some of my goals: to have a meaningful and intense life, learn everyday, teach whenever possible, help other people... what else? "Make love not war" may sound dated but is always a valid statement, isn't it? PHILOSOPHY Respect! Trees, animals.. and eventually humans, why not? I don't like ideologies and generally speaking the dogmatic thinking, I like thinking my way, building my personal idea about everything. In my opinion nothing and NOBODY (except Gandhi, Bob Marley and Homer Simpson) deserves a full and unconditioned consideration, I never had idols. An absolute value for me is the the preservation of nature, in all possible ways. I could maybe apply it soon by working with environmentally friendly technologies.
Interested in Adventure Sports
Fluent in English

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE CS is an amazing experience, I hosted several people and met some other around in Rome, and I always enjoyed the company. I was also hosted once in Paris, great experience too. I had the chance to learn each time about different places in the world and even about different human worlds, I could talk about the best of my country (not that easy in this period..) and make people appreciating my wonderful town!! (very easy instead..). After several months in this project, I can say that from CS you can get beautiful - and sometimes lifetime - human experiences!!!
Music, Movies, and Books
I like reading about philosophy, economics, politics, history, Simpsons.. Movies? Greenaway, Kusturica, Almodovar, Tarantino and many others. I like French, Spanish and Russian movies, Hollywood movies are definitely a no no for me.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
The rise of the sun from the top of "Monte D'Oro" in Corse. Unbelieveable.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach how to cook good roman recipes like "pasta all'amatriciana", how to carve wood, weld iron.. with a phylosophical approach!!! And of course how to appreciate the best of my small town.. I like learning languages and ways of life, it sometimes changes my habits!
My Interests
I like traveling, both for visiting places and for meeting different people. I like melting with different cultures and point of views, it's always interesting and positive. I also like sharing common interests, and of course learning something new and teach it at the same time !! I like enjoying the beauty of nature doing outdoor sports (mtb, hiking, etc). I love the sea, either relaxing at sunset on the beach or playing with waves on my kayak.. On the other hand, I like nightlife, partying, etc.. After all, I like enjoying life in all aspects!!
