I'm an independent designer but originally a traveler passionate for life who decided to adopt a new lifestyle dissonant from the current standards and tuned more with simple life values. On the way to become a better person I see the act of traveling not only as a tourism action, but more as a source of inspiration and learning, a long term journey through life, developing on my own pace new skills and forms of interaction with the world, the environment, people and their culture.

"As a good traveler I have no fixed plans and I´m not intent on arriving" (from Lao Tzu).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I´ve been surfing couches since I was a kid when used to sleep at friends houses. Nowadays I´m still doing the same but in another scale... if before they usually were my neighbors, now they are spread around the world.

Unfortunately I´m traveling now, so for now I´m only surfing. But as soon as I find a nice place to live I hope to give back all the accommodation, kindness, nice experiences and help I received during the last years surfing around the globe.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have done and seen a few nice things, but one of the most amazing experiences I´ve ever had was my last trip which ran from Chile to India along 25 countries on 4 continents and lasted 16 months. Most of the way has been covered by bus, bicycle and hitchhike, including a month sailing a catamaran until be hit by a cargo ship in the Indian Ocean on the way to Egypt.
