About Me

I am a former university professor in the Computer Engineering Department with a PhD specializing in Artificial Intelligence and Software Engineering. Currently, I work as a computer scientist at a research center.

An avid motorbike enthusiast, I have explored Europe extensively, with a particular fondness for Italy, Switzerland, France, and Austria. My passion for travel is deeply intertwined with my love for motorcycling, fueling my desire to discover the world on two wheels.

I have a deep love for the mountains, embracing winter with skiing, snowshoe excursions, and other winter sports. In the summer, I enjoy biking and motorbiking through scenic mountain trails. Additionally, I am drawn to the sea, where I engage in underwater activities, exploring the marine world with enthusiasm.

I am also deeply passionate about the arts, especially music and cinema. I enjoy exploring new musical genres, watching films, traveling, learning new languages, cooking, and experiencing diverse foods and cultures. I value meaningful connections and appreciate spending time with friends while gaining a deeper understanding of this beautiful world and its people.

I am always eager to meet new people from different backgrounds and cultures. If you ever find yourself in Milan, I would be glad to offer you a place to stay at my apartment.

Philosophy
Life is short, but it is filled with endless beauty and experiences. I believe in living with curiosity, kindness, and a spirit of adventure—embracing every opportunity to connect with others, appreciate nature, and create meaningful memories. Let us share the journey and the wonders it brings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I heard from my friends that they found a place to couch-surf in Florence.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Yes, my first experience was just two days after registering on Couchsurfing in early May 2008. I hosted Lauren, and we had a wonderful dinner together, sharing stories about our experiences. Since then, I've had the pleasure of hosting guests from the USA, New Zealand, Australia, Thailand, Germany, Hong Kong, France, and Brazil. Some of the amazing people I've hosted include Lauren, Luyen (True to Self), Nancy, Kook, Juhannes, Kiwi, Amy and Ping, Nil, and Pepe.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a fan of classic films like *The Godfather* and *Goodfellas*, and I especially enjoy Martin Scorsese's work, as well as Stanley Kubrick's. I appreciate straightforward narratives and action movies, but I'm not really into science fiction.

As for animation, *Shrek 1* is my favorite. When it comes to actors, I admire the performances of Robert De Niro, Tom Hanks, Brad Pitt, Joe Pesci, Al Pacino, Denzel Washington, and Jim Carrey.
