Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just host travellers...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I never couched, but I helped some very nice surfers to have pleasant stay in my country...I hope I succeeded in making them comfortable in my place and make them love my country as I do.

Interests

possibly too many: outdoor activities, cinema, book, theatre, music...and still looking for many others...
but among my favourites are
Ultimate frisbee (www.upa.org; www.tuscanultimate.it)
cycling with my bike and
riding my motor bike...
and reading.
