About Me

ABOUT ME

I just graduated in engineering in Milan some month ago and now i started a new life in Germany, I had the feeling that going to other countries just in holiday settings for a few weeks/months was not enough and so I decided to simply move abroad. i'm everyday open to new experiences and friendships and i think that this mindset helped me so many times in different and unexpected environments. I actually rarely found disadvantages from having an open mindset.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy involves mainly the golden rule of "making stuff", if you can choose between doing or not doing something simply do it and something else unexpected will happen as a natural consequence. In order to stick to this idea I try always to be as open as possible to the differences that i found in other people. A nice natural metaphor to explain this is the wind generation, the wind begins when hot and cold airs meet; differences make movement ! don't be static.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that a trip without meeting local people is not really an experience, it is the same of eating with the cold and the stuffy nose ! you consume the food but don't feel the taste of it

Interests

My interests include Music and Nature, i use to play trumpet and tuba in an Italian internationalist brass band that is part of a world freak brass band movement connecting people from around the world ! I'm also really into Jazz, in Milan a was organizing some concerts and meeting of local bands in some nice spots of the city.
