ABOUT ME

I like to travel, meet new people, learn as much as possible about other cultures, customs and traditions. I like to listen to music, during my free time, and I play the guitar since I was 13 years old (just a bit of drums and harmonica too). I have been working at the University of Pisa college radio for a few years. I'm a brown belt of Judo but actually I don't practice, unfortunatly.
I love hiking, climbing and sleep outdoors in a tent and I hope, sooner or later, to have the opportunity to cross the Andes.
I am always optimistic and smiling, I prefer to see the "glass half full" !!

PHILOSOPHY

I never judge someone or something before I know it well.

There is always a solution to everything even if it is hard to find it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went swimming in a stagnant puddle in Mexico (It did not seem absolutely a puddle ... they told me later!)

I made 2 and a half hours of climbing without a harness and ropes. (you do not do it ever! It was a mistake).

I saw the sunset over the gulf of the Caribbean.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to hike and I visited in particular the Apuan Alps and then for those who want advice about these just have to ask!
I definitely would like to improve my English which in recent years has unfortunately gone a bit worse ... but not too much :)
I can teach you some techniques of judo and playing guitar if you're interested!
