ABOUT ME

I moved a lot during my life (worktrotting haha) and have been living 10 years in the wonderful city of Turin; I recently came back to my hometown. Through the many things that changed in my life I tried to keep loyal to a personal attitude towards life that's not easy to explain but I can define as transparent, naive, focused. Some things you may want to know about me: cinemagoer, intellectual, accel xenoleftist, cheerful and generous friend. Not very sensitive to non-verbal communication so if you want me to understand something, you better say that in your own words. Couchsurfing is fun: that's the best way to explore places, building meaningful connections, meeting different lifestyles. As a surfer, I'm very friendly, respectful and usually don't leave the house without giving a present, I wash my own dishes and sometimes cook for everybody and things like that. As a "houseowner", I'm friendly and devoted but I prefer to lend keys and let my guests be as independent as they like.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy." said the poet, but you never really realize that until you enroll in Couchsurfing: living your entire life from hotel to hotel, getting to know just the people you are introduced to, doesn't give you the measure of what's really going on around you, and I must say that since I do Couchsurfing (both hosting and travelling) I realized that the world is bigger than I thought, full of very different people, full of love and beauty and unique personalities.

Interests

I'm quite imaginative and welcoming. Life and human nature are two of my favourite topics
Among my interests, also Environment, Freeletics/ athletic skills, Post-modernism, Architecture history, New Wave music, Disaster Studies, Geography, Demography, card games and board games.
I used to swim and always like to, I am very appreciative of good company

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite movie are "Basic Instinct" by Paul Verhoeven, "Dogville" by Lars Von Trier and "Brazil" by Terry Gilliam. Also Who framed Roger Rabbit?, Blade Runner, Total Recall, Hitchcock, Visconti, Antonioni, all Bergmans'. I have projector and prefer cinema to streaming

I'm fond of New Wave music and my favourite band is Talking Heads.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
