I'm a long term Italian expat who has moved around for the past 14 years or so. I currently live in Berlin but I have spent a considerable amount of time in the Uk where I worked as an automotive engineer at Jaguar Land Rover. I left after Brexit and travelled around for a couple years, spending quite some time in Australia.

Rock climbing is my primary passion and main holiday driver, I am also into fitness/health/mobility and in the process of getting a personal trainer license

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is the most genuine and welcoming way to meet new and lovely people
I am hoping to contribute positively to the life of anybody I come across, may this be by providing help, food or company.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Italian recipes and how to backflip or handstand. I can also create for you a beginner training plan 💪🏻

As far as learning goes: I want to learn everything there is to learn all the time

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm legitimately decent in the kitchen and have a few specialties which I would be very happy to share. Also I love vacuuming (and powerwashing) and will happily clean your place if you want me to.

I have broad interests and love hearing and learning about new things and points of view. I like to think I make for an engaging conversation. I am very curious and crave conversations which challenge my views and make me feel a little dumber/humbler than before.
