About Me

Hi folks!

I am a very active and curious person, enthusiast life lover; I love knowing new people, discovering, trying new experiences, sharing and laughing!

Last November I quit my job to start travelling with my girlfriend around south-east Asia (maybe the the start of our world tour?), really excited about this new chapter.

I love travelling backpacking or by car/motorbike, to have no plans and enjoy every moment.

I like drawing (portraits are my passion), basically playing guitar and mandolin to have fun and doing sports (except for surfing and similar, really have no equilibrium!).

I'm quite sure every food with chilli is lovable.
The rest you'll find out when we'll meet!

PHILOSOPHY

When something happens accept it and move on!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To discover the world, even staying in my house!

I had few but amazing experiences in CS, only unforgettable folks!

Interests

Painting, ethic finance, ecology, sustainable development, volunteering, cooking, business management, travelling

Music, Movies, and Books

I love listening ska, folk and rock, especially Italian and Spanish groups, during hard parties also commercial music is welcome ;-)

Not really interested in cinema, I like comedies and biographic movies.
Sometimes when I am veeeeery tired I Iike commenting crappy reality shows (sssh, it's a secret!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first ones I have in mind =)

- I took two fines for driving at 58 km/h instead of 50 (Germany and Holland for your info!)
- participated at Thaipusam festival at Batu Caves, Kuala Lumpur. The most unbelievable religious festival I have ever seen or imaged
- played rugby for 1 year and still be alive
- had the introduction to meditation by a buddhist monk
- sang in a Thai karaoke
- took the cheapest flight while I was in an airport for renting a car
- travelled for some days bathing in lakes and sleeping in the car
- run an half marathon in less than 5 minutes per km

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to play 'sputo' ('spit' in english): for me the most funny and stressful card game, how to cook an Italian 'risotto' and some stuff about business management (pay attention can be boring ;-) ). Every question about italian culture or italian and spanish language is welcome

I want to know more about Buddhism, learn out-of-the-box lifestyles (really interested in digital nomads' experiences!) and everything about other habits and cultures!

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Cambodia, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Laos, Malaysia, Malta, Morocco, Netherlands, Singapore, Spain, Thailand, United Kingdom, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In
