CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

The space to fill is too small to describe my personality

PHILOSOPHY

Hedonism and epicureanism!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Honestly i just needed a bed without paying during a trip after i realized the power of being in this network in order to meet people and share emotions and experiences...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosted in different countries such as Poland, Albania, Serbia, Netherlands and I hosted some couchsurfers in my flat in Poland, Belgium and in Italy. I almost had always great experience but even after those who were not really positive I never thought about quitting this amazing project! Humans are not perfect, CS is not perfect but it is still one of the best ideas I have seen so far to connect people and building cultural bridges, way much better than social networks that are mainly used to spam friends with bullshits.

Interests

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Realizing that whatever I become or I will become is all thanks to the effort my parents did to provide me education, good manners, tastes, love, unconditional support and last but not least 46 chromosomes! ok this last effort it was done for their own fun ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can make you extremely bored with long discussions about politics, international relations, economy, religions etc...the only nerdy hobby I've got! I can make you totally astonished with my controversial points of view regarding tricky psychology topics such as love, male/female relations, cheating, wedding... wondering why women could never agree with me ;)I can make you fall in love for hot groovy old black music and jazzy tunes or for old cult movies... my tastes are quite vintage so forget about new shitty movies well known just thanks to marketing!I can make you cooking something eatable despite your poor cooking skills or national culinary tradition... ok our gastronomy is one of the few things we italians can still be proud of, let us be presumptuous at least here! ;)You can teach me everything I am not aware of as I am really curious about everything.. even topics like sexual diseases among Bonobo monkeys in eastern Congo or macrobiotic diet guidelines :D
