Hi everybody! I’m Alex, a traveller who loves and respects the nature, the animals and the people. I travel around the world with a low budget, hitchhiking, always eating local street food and I love meeting people, sharing time with the locals, exploring its culture and when is possible volunteering for needy people or animals.

I’m a friendly guy, always smiling, polite and I love cooking Italian food to let the other people enjoy it but I also like tasting international (and veggie - because I’m vegetarian) food! I’m also a bartender, you should try one of my drinks :)

I just came back after two years in a row travelling in Latin America which has been the most incredible and magical time of my life and soon I’ll travel to Asia with a one way ticket for a long long trip :)

Thanks to this app I had the most unforgettable moments of my trips since for my opinion when everything is finished you don’t remember the places you’ve been but the special persons you met during your path… and I’ve met so many special people with whom I’m still in contact after all these years <3

By the way during my trip I’ve been hosted by almost 100 families thanks to this app by I’ve lost my account and opened a new one and I’m trying to get my feedbacks back :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This platform is the perfect chance to discover the real soul of a country simply sharing time with local people which for me is one of the most important aspect when I travel abroad.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled for two years in a raw in Latin America hitchhiking in every countries (3200km with just one hitchhike from Puebla to Tijuana in Mexico!)
I hiked the Bolivian Huayna Potosi mountain, reaching his Peak at 6100 meters.
I survived in the Amazon with no food, no water and no electricity, living in an hammock.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn as more I as can from these trips and helping as many people as I can. I usually do volunteers for needy people or rescued animals.
At the same time I’m a really good company person to share time with, drinking or eating something. I’m that kind of person who prefers to listen to your stories but if you want I can tell you some funny adventures about my trips around the world :D
