About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm an addict! Nothing more, nothing less.

Addicted to:

food - especially Italian however now exploring the secret of healthy lifestyle and balanced diet

music - goal: go to more concerts!

books - fantasy, self-development

cycling - with Gary, the best bicycle with a soul :)

the sun , mountains, people, experiences, chocolate, CS ... to enjoying life! :)

PHILOSOPHY

Freedom is not about doing what you want, but wanting what you do, which means taking responsibility for one's action.

'All the mundane
Has bought out the rebel
I was born to be
And it feels like the perfect time
Just to break away
This is my life
It's a sojourn from the norm'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing means people. I've made amazing friends here. Although I haven't been particularly active recent years I can't imagine my life without the 'couchsurfing period' in my life.
