CURRENT MISSION

My cosmopolitan spirit compels me to enlarge further my horizons.

ABOUT ME

I consider myself as a fun person who knows how to stay in the world. I also consider myself a citizen of the world, even if i'm proud of my dominican roots and my italian culture. I'm an adventurer who tries to realize his dream: to know physically and culturally the diversity of our fantastic world without barriers of prejudice, but rather learning from each encounter.

PHILOSOPHY

Audentes fortuna iuvat = fortune favors the bold

so if you do all that is possible in the end you can have your happy ending.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've known about couchsurfing nearing the end of my first erasmus in Coimbra (Pt). However, I started to make my first experience during my second erasmus in Brazil. This site is great for us travelers because it allows us to come into contact with local people maybe similar to us and with whom you can share your experiences in addition to take inspiration from them.

Intereses

I like to party, have fun with friends, listen to good music, to do adventure sports, snorkeling, photograph beautiful landscape, the comedy of the absurd among others.

Algo increíble que he hecho

there are so many ... but there's a special one. When I was on Erasmus in Coimbra I organized a trip for 20 people to Morocco with Ryanair three months before and only five days before departure I realized that I had left my passport in Italy and that Morocco is outside Europe. How a big adventurer I went to the airport with only the identity card. After 2 hours of pleading, the general manager of the airport of Porto had told me and printed the reasons why he would not make me leave. Then next to throw in the towel and go back to Coimbra I decided to stand in line to check-in and the controller makes me: "sorry... if you had been a Portuguese citizen there was no problem". I answered: "I am an Italian citizen!" and he says: "so there is no problem!" (However, he did not know that the director of the airport had already told me that it was not possible).
Then I said that to my Moroccan friends at the talian university and they told me stunned: Manuel but
Moroccans can not even get in morocco without a passport! they still do not believe it, neither my Brazilian friends.
