About Me

CURRENT MISSION

think in the morning, act in the afternoon, eat in the evening and sleep at night ( has it always been in this order? ^_O)

ABOUT ME

I love making things, eating, travelling and tough weather conditions, but most of all I love people.
I feel good when I feel free and friends give energy to my internal engine. I consider myself as fully European and I support at hundred percent the cultural sharing and the enhancing of minor traditions on this planet.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is to enjoy my existence by living my life at full... and nothing is given for granted.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I feel at HOME when I can strengthen my traditions by sharing them with those of other people. My couch is for travelers who share this idea and identify themselves as active, respectful and responsible citizens of the world. I hope my next guest will be you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted many people from all over the world and yet many to come. I have surfed many couches in the past, no need to say that I have a distinct preference in visiting a city when I have a bit of support and tips from locals.

Interests

Languages and local weird costumes.
Music and visual arts.
Sustainable Development
Cooking.
WWOOFing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bicycle trip from Geneva (CH) to Istanbul (TK) with my friend Julien.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to learn:
Arabic, how to play piano, to draw a portrait, to mount a farm activity...

I can teach:
how to make a substantial number of Italian cooking recipes, how thermodynamics influences phase transformation, how to play guitar on the beach...

What I Can Share with Hosts

The experience of living in a wonderful city such as Turin should not be given for granted and to be able to discover it at its fullest I am open to share the best places with my hosts.
