Teach, Learn, Share

One of the things that distinguishes a country is gastronomy. I love sharing, I love teaching... I like cooking a lot ;-) If I have foreign guests, I can cook some typical italian dishes for them!

If you want i can teach you how:
-resolve the rubik's cube in 6 minutes(The majority of couchsurfer host me for this reason:-)

-start to juggle with balls,clubs,hats,rings and a lot of stuff.

-try to fix your bike if u have some problems.

-install a open source system(linux) at your pc

-some stuff about organic agriculture and permaculture

-capoeira basic movements.

"learns your direction by people who are not like you"
-Mercanti di liquore-(italian folk music group)
