About Me

Researcher at the UniPG. Slow energy, minimalism, looking for meaningful exchange and hiking/climbing partners.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It remains a wonderful magnet for awesome people with diverse life experiences. Even with the recent years' setbacks - paywall and all, there's still a sizeable menagerie of noteworthy folks to be met.

Interests

Trails and climbs, cuisines of the world, hitchhiking, languages. Things measurable and subtle, weaving together to form what we wade, pole vault, trundle and live through as people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I still fondly remember the Annapurna Circuit Trail, 2020. And then getting stuck in Kathmandu and living for a month on muesli and digestives. Good old times!

Teach, Learn, Share

Can talk and share about linguistics and perception, casual philosophy of trying to tread one's own path. Food chatter is always appreciated, hitch stories, photography, comedy
