About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Simply enjoy life with whoever I meet on the way: family, close, old friends or new ones. Life is a journey of discovery and I'd like to share it with people on the way, to contribute to their journey too, leaving behind a nice, fun and loud memory of me!

ABOUT ME

I am a person in constant move,I always want to learn new skills,live in new countries,learn a new language. To me it seems that one life is not enough to do everything!
I am Italian,studied in London where I lived for a few years,after realising that an office job is not for me at all,I started travelling to Asia,then South America,living one year in Argentina. From there I went to live in Mexico,where I stayed for 2 years,working as a diving instructor,finally I found the perfect job,as I love water and tropical countries. 2 years in the same place is too much though and I went travelling again,to Central America and then to Brazil, for the second time during Carnival, best time ever! The world is just too big! After that I went working in Egypt and had to leave it for the bad political situation :( Then I worked and lived in Maldives, 2 years in Thailand and now back to my favourite place!! Mexico! playa del Carmen, in my opinion this place offers a good balance for settling down! Not too bad in the Caribbean! ;)
Travelling for me is everything,it makes me feel alive and I am just grateful to have the possibility to do it and meet amazing people in unique countries. Life is what we choose to make,I choose fun, adventure, culture,friends and learning,whatever I feel like it!

PHILOSOPHY

Simply live and let live. I try to have a positive attitude to whatever happens in my life,trying to enjoy the present,still thinking about the future, but not worrying too much. To me it's important with who I share my experiences with, so friends and family are very important and so making new friends,to get to know new way of thinking,living,etc..

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I simply would like to know the local people where I travel to and giving my advice if possible on places I lived in,if anyone is interested. At the moment I am in Playa del Carmen and I am not planning to do any travelling but i still miss the Couch Surfing community!! So if there is anyone interested to meet up and enjoy this city with such a great vibe, let me know! :D

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed in Brazil, Cuba, Mexico, Malaysia, I participated to various CS meetings and had the chance to make friends with people where I was living, so then we could regularly hang out, it was great!

Interests

Travelling obviously,I love sports,especially swimming and gym. Music is another passion, especially live music,I really enjoy concerts and dancing.
Arts is another of my interests,I really enjoy painting,but I am a disaster! I still try to be inspired sometimes,but I haven't created a masterpiece yet..but won't give up!
