Hello world,

my name is Emilio, and traveling around I got more names,
so you can call me Gelso (the Italian name for Mulberry) as I chose, because I wanted to be more connected with Nature and fruits represents abundance and sweetness,
or you can also call me Krishnadas from a spiritual maister with whom I learnt a lot about Vedic culture.

I see life as a transformation and in the process I started from Nature, towards spiritual awareness and now I'm back in the society to transform Life as it is with everything I learnt so far.
Therefore it looks like I'm doing a regular life, work in the office and enjoy sharing with friends...but there's much more, there are intentions flowing and feelings expanding, nothing is the same as before.

PHILOSOPHY

I am aware of a balance between opposites, so I don't push things too far, I enjoy more listening and dancing through life, keeping life simple and just working to transform things in something more beautiful.
It could be cooking, or tiding the house, or gardening or anything necessary, any action can be a form of Love, and I put all my best even in the little things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

If I can host people, you´ll be always welcome, If I´m traveling, I´ll be happy to share my travel with other people. I believe in sharing, I started even an intentional community and my whole life is about creating a healthy and safe sharing environment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience, April 2010 in Rome.
A little bit confused of such spontaneity, people coming or just passing by, couchsurfers everywhere :)

Now I feel part of the dream and also responsible of carrying the beauty of sharing travels, I wish to continue to put good intentions and share this beauty as much as possible.

Interests

I started a new life in Tuscany, so now I'm focusing of discovering the surroundings and enjoying the little things, yet any form of action can be an art, and since I'm very curious I'm often into learning something new,
so hosting travelers rises my curiosity towards learning something new.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is part of our ancestral vibrations, Raggae let things flowing easily, Classical sparks my curiosity, Electronic goes deep in my body but prefers to stay out, folk music shakes my soul everywhere around the world.
Silence connects me with the rest of the universe.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Everyday can be Amazing, I follow intuitions and I push myself towards new adventures, so anytime life surprises me with magical connections.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe in sustainability and happiness, and I designed my life this way, so you can learn about cooking or farming as practical aspects of life.
I also experienced how important is communication between people to find deeper connections, as it happens in communities. Since I did several sharing experiences I am happy to share also how to go through collective experiences and tools to handle different situations.

What I Can Share with Hosts

During the week I work office hours, but in the morning of in the evening I'm super happy to share and walk and dance :)
I am very enthusiastic and even after work I'm motivated to do something beautiful when possible.

I live between Firenze, Pisa, Livorno and Lucca,
so there are plenty of opportunities to discover the heart of Tuscany :)
