About Me

What about me? Anthropology.
"I'm still walking through life, I wouldn't know where to begin to talk about me. I'm an italian student of modern italian literature (And linguistic) who has always loved something, in front of her eyes, without knowing what it was.
I found out few time ago.
Passed days, thoughts, interests. Contemporary and modern art, Photography, studying, I discovered that everything was directed on one thing: Human beings.
Now I'm trying to get close to all sorts of cultures, I want really know em, this is my CURRENT MISSION".

Life phylosophy?
"I think I can't talk about a 'line of thinking adopted' by a person, yes it's true I've my theories and my ideas but're too long to write overthere, I could write a poem about it. : )
In any case among "my theories" there's the one to which don't exist theories, at least not always. People live of cultural habits, the important thing is to not make it laws.

And the colors, always exist.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I haven't even had the chance to do experiences on Couchsurfing, but I want to start because the only way to know people is living people, on their details, on their daily habits.
I like to find out the true life of cultures I'm going to met.
Couchsurfing'll give me all of this!

Interests

Interests are a too general category, is a label. I don't like labels.

I love take photos, I started with landscapes photos, now I'm heading on non-classical photos that've something behind, a message (I'm using digital and analogical cameras).

I love to talk, people are a univers, it's a pleasure observing their rhythms.

And I write, I've a Blog and a new site with other students like me. I usually write Stories or poems, it depends on the things and the events that happened around me.

If you want take a look, this is my new site: www.trikawe.org

Music, Movies, and Books

Music.
"In this period I really get interested for some post-rock bands (Balmhorea, Explosions in the sky for example) but I still have to go into post-rock world. I listen some Indie, metal, alternative metal bands".

Books.
"Even if I don't like general labels and talking about general argouments, I can try.
I love anthropology, I often get lost litteraly in anthropological sections in libraries, and find interesting anthropologist.
I like people who tell stories like they have lived it, or like they're tellin in my mind. I've read Erri de Luca, because he talk to you through his stories.

I love writers to which don't like labels.
Baudelaire, Cioran, Dostoevskij, Boccaccio.
It would be a never ending list".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There's a lot of thing to do without moving, standing still, just opening the eyes.
An amazing thing it's to be in a town or in a city, among people and just see them when there're living.
Suitcase wheels turning,
a pair of heels crawling,
a ringing phone,
some screams,
a ball in a park,
people arguing and smiling.
In Italy, in Czech republich, in Tunisia, in France the people is the most amazing thing I've ever done.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can give a bed in my room or the sofa in my living room (it depends on the period) and everything you need! We can go out for a walk in Bologna, I can show you the city and its monuments. I can show you also the unknown wonderful places that nobody knows. This city is a never end surprise. You're gonna love it!
