About Me

I'm friendly and communicative boy, with a curious and creative attitude :)
I've a lot of hobbies: videogames, watch film and series, read, write, just to say the most important :D
I really like talking about historical and philosophical topics, literature, videolutic and cinematographic works, also at an in-depth and analytical level. But, in general, I like to talk about everything and I'm always opened to interesting conversations :)

I often travel to Ukraine, because my girlfriend lives in Kharkiv. We both love to travel and visit new places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I mentioned before, I really like traveling ;)
I really like meeting new people, having good company and stimulating and interesting conversations. Furthermore, I am a curious person and I like to get in touch with traditions and cultures of other countries.
I'm also interested in improving my English.

Unfortunately, currently I don't have the possibility to host, but for those who are in Naples I would be more than happy to be a guide to make them better know the city, the culture and the history and the main beauties of the city, of which, the most important is pizza!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Especially Classical Music, Rock and Jazz
Film: Difficult to say, because there are many that I like for many reasons, but if I put Blade Runner 2019/2049 II'm on safe ground ;)
Books: "The Lord of the Rings" (J.R.R. Tolkien), stories and novels about "Conan the Barbarian" (Robert E. Howard), "Il nome della rosa" (Umberto Eco), "Memoirs of Hadrian" (Marguerite Yourcenar), "Master and Margarita" (Mikhail Bulgakov).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most extraordinary thing I did was to meet my ideal girlfriend whom I met, in a totally unpredictable way, on a site for language learning exchange. It was unexpected, but I'm really glad it happened.

Another thing I can mention is definitely when I gave a lesson on Viking colonization of Iceland during a conference at the university of Barcelona in front of many students and teachers. It was a beautiful experience, as well as very formative for my personality.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help to learn Italian or, even, Neapolitan ;)
