About Me

I'm a life explorer who believes that goals and journey are the same thing

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea of connection between people, I believe it's the most powerful tool for a brighter future, and it's freaking awesome:)

Interests

I love going into the nature, I love going to the river and hiking, I love being in the sun, I love being on a journey. I love to change. Music is a life companion that has helped to shape myself.
My favourite hobby is photography, it's the only passion that i I have stably preserved over the years while I was tasting many other things.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a wide range explorer, if You read below you'll get it

MUSIC:

There are two artists who above all others have had an impact on my life, beyond the simple pleasure of listening: Pink Floyd and Fabrizio De Andrè. Their music and words pushed my life on a better road, as if someone slightly turn your steering wheel.

While I was younger I was really into crossover music such as rage against the machine, Linkin Park, Guano Apes, Incubus and so on.

Growing up I slightly switched towards rock artists such as Chris Cornell, Foo Fighters, The Black Keys, Brian Jonestown Massacre, as well as more classic stuff like The Clash, CCR, Donovan,

Now I'm really into alternative music such as Talking Heads, Alt-J, Arcade Fire, Cake, Calexico, Explosions in The Sky, Modest Mouse, Neutral Milk Hotel.
I also like electronic music like Bonobo, Chet Faker, Nicholas Jaar, Dub FX, Fat Freddy's Drop, LCD Sounsystem.

MOVIES:

I love good movies. I cannot choose one favourite movie. Let's say that I really love movies which are unique in a particular way; it could be the story, the photography, plot twists, the direction, dialogues... So for example I was stunned by Memento, Requiem for a dream, Incendies, 3 billboards outside Missouri, Castaway on the Moon, 12 Angry men, Big Lebowsky aaand Pulp Fiction of course.

BOOKS:

I'll lie if I say I read a lot. But I do enjoy it. I loved some books such as Siddharta, Shantaram, The prophet, Mutant Message Down Under, I love McCarthy: No country for old men and The road are amazing books. Last book I read is "of mice and men" by Steinbeck, great book.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was kayaking in the Tasman sea in New Zealand, within half an hour the sea got really rough and I found myself all of a sudden riding huge waves all alone in the ocean! I was having so much fun, smiling with the splashes of the waves on my face... until a police boat stopped me, they orderd me to get on board and fined me because i split from the group.
