About Me

Let me introduce myself:
well, it's not that easy actually.. I have too many interests, I would like to be a lot of things, I still have to decide what to do with my life.Sometimes I'd walk 10 thousands miles, just to see the world, others I just like to relax at home, playing music, videogames.

I work as food chemist in a food company , and I like to consider myself a mad scientist. Muhahah ( typical crazy scientist laugher. See? It's true!)

I love to joke about everything, as long as no one get hurts, of course. I care about people feelings, and they say I'm kind of emphatic, even more when I'm drunk hahaha. Just kidding.

A cool and shorter way to describe me:
Chemist, musician, juggler, photographer, gamer

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love sofas..but I'm not able to surf yet..

Music, Movies, and Books

I love rock, punk, i play the bass guitar, I've played in many different bands;
I love nerd/action/scientific movies, tv shows.. Star wars!!
About books: fantasy..mainly, The lord of the rings on top of it..OK, I know, I sound like a stereotyped nerd..but guess what? I'm not!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I ate 8 cheeseburgers in 15 minutes..Well..it doesn't sound that amazing..but hey!
I'm trying to complete my profile quickly because I still have to eat lunch (it's 2:30 pm)...by the time I'll figure something better out xD

Ok, time to get serious (not easy for me):
-I graduated with full honors, with a thesis in synthetic organic chemistry with a long and cool name: "Design and synthesis of new antitumoral derivatives from camptothecin alkaloid"
-I lived in Toronto for 6 months, knowing and sharing a big house with people from all over the world, despite my crappy 12 hours night shifts job as fortune cookies manufacturer :/
-I went on a rubber boat trip in Saint Lawrence bay (in a very cold day) and I saw whales, very close, too close!!
- I saw and took pictures of amazing northern lights! stunning experience despite standing outside for 4 hours at -15 degrees with the camera and fingers almost frozen :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you many useless things:
how to play the bass guitar,
how to juggle with 3/4 balls,
how to extract DNA from a banana (true story),
how to surivive to a crazy radioactive cows invasion (most people just ignore that)

I could bore/scare you describing lot of food chemicals you eat every day.

Mmm was the purpose of this box just talking about languages? Yeah, it sounds more reasonable. In that case I could teach you italian..but you know, it's not that useful.. I would like to improve my english, learn spanish, and improve my very basic norwegian.
