CURRENT MISSION

Activating people's inner resources

ABOUT ME

I am very interested in everything that makes people more active, stimulate social relationships and alternative ways of living. I am very happy about my work, that gives me a chance to study exactly those things. I live with two beautiful kids, who take a good percentage of my time (and I am happy with that), but I am also very curious about people.

PHILOSOPHY

Lightness, but it is easy to say, but hard to practice

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a good space to host people, but at the moment I am a bit cautious because my kids are living with me. But I am entering in this couchsurfing world just now and I will find a way to contribute to this community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well, no experience within this community, but there are so many friends who offered me their couch. Perhaps the best one was on a beautiful glass villa on the Garda lake, but I did not sleep very well, because the landscape around was so fantastic I could not help watching outside :-)

Interests

I play trumpet and guitar, I play tennis, fencing, I run, swim and I'm learning skating. I would have many other interests if I had more time

• design
• running
• guitar
• trumpet
• fencing
• tennis
• swimming
