ABOUT ME
Born and raised in Torino, after completing my studies and ready to join an accounting firm, steps on the road to an easy bourgeoise existence, I suddenly got wise and had a change in my lifeplan. Thus I found myself working as a sales rep, by car all over Italy, crossing the most unsignificant villages, discovering my country and my countrymates. I loved it, and then everything happened, met people, went living abroad, moved places, yet few years later, again by chance, got back to Torino and settled down, right when I was getting the taste of liberty. Life is a bitch I thought, but now that returning home proved to be a true lucky strike...well...I beg Your pardon and must admit I am pretty happy with my fate so far. So said, who knows where coincidences can hold you next, but indeed I pray the Lord of Randomness for something sunny and by the sea.
My nature? Curious, unpredictable, friendly and very very headstrong ;-)
PHILOSOPHY
Feeling good and confortable, everyday. As simple as that.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Been couchsurfing sometimes when abroad, participating in parties and meeting and so on. But what I like most is sharing with people, anywhere, everywhere, in and out of cs.
Interests
Mamma mia, such a question always puts me on strain, I'm pretty omnivorous! If I had to picture myself through my passions I'd pick up cycling, blues music, traveling off the beaten track, dark chocolate with Jerez brandy, playing chess, hanging around on a deserted weeknight with a funny company

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Been living in a eight-square-metre basement studio flat, 4 metres long and 2 metres wide to be precise, with pink and plum carpeted walls, and carpeted toilet floor. Simply ugly and unlivable. I also hosted some friends there...pretty tiny friends, of course...
Teach, Learn, Share
Friends consider me a good connoisseur of Torino's history, beauties and nightlife, I work as a cycling tours planner then I may show you the city and the surroundings by bike, which is awesome. Learn, expecially what's behind all courtains and above the sky, I am trying to.
