Overview
About Me
Hello everybody,
we are Alessandro and Susanna, we are from Italy but we currently live in Lanzarote, in the Canary Islands with our wonderful son Jacopo.
We love nature and all the activities that allow you to have a contact with it...
Especially we love the Ocean and for this reason we think we are very lucky to be able to live in this beautiful island in the middle of the Atlantic, in a house located a few meters from the sea.
Compatibly with our commitments we will be happy to welcome you, we only need a little notice to organize everything.
Our house is large enough and we have a sofa that turn into 2 comfortable single beds in the area that we normally use as a living room.
Traveling is one of our greatest passions and we will be happy to share with you stories of travels and experiences around the world and also, if you like, to give you some advice on how to make the most of your experience here in Lanzarote...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
We are here because we love traveling the world, not as tourists but as travellers.
We like to visit and explore new places, meet people from all over the world, know cultures and traditions different from ours and also learn and try to speak new languages.
We think the best way to do all this is to be hosted in the homes of the people who live in the places where we go and, at the same time, to host people from all over the world here.
Moreover, we really like the idea of being able to offer a contribution to these people in exchange for their hospitality.
It’s not just a way to travel without having large capitals to spend, but also and above all a way to participate totally in the life of the place we are visiting, having real and deep experiences and interacting authentically with other people.
All things that, in our opinion, with the organized trips and the whole package of mass tourism are absolutely impossible to achieve.
We think traveling the world is the best way to open the mind getting a better understanding of other people and at the end of ourselves...
... that’s why we decided to be here...

Teach, Learn, Share
In the last 25 years of our life we have worked in different fields and we have had several work experiences.
Lifeguard and swimming instructor, waiters, animators, dance and gymnastics instructors, instructors of motor activities in kindergartens and much more...
The encounter with the massage and holistic disciplines in general 15 years ago led us to a radical change in our life and, until the arrival of the virus that disrupted the lives of half the world, we used to work for more than 10 years as massage therapists and massage and holistic teachers.
We took advantage of this forced break to start studying marketing and communication, aware that only with the right knowledge and application of these disciplines we can ensure that the services and activities we propose will reach in the near future interested people in every part of the world spreading, developing and making the most of all their potential.
One of our main skills is to learn new useful things to improve our lives, integrate them into our daily routine, review and simplify them to the maximum and then explain and teach them to people who show real interest trying to help them to get the maximum possible result with the least effort.
We are working - starting from our experience with holistic massage, gymnastics, water activities, etc. - to create an integrated, holistic system, simple to understand and apply that allows people who want to feel good, full of energy, fit both physically and mentally, to experience a new way of living their daily lives, learning day after day to make the most of their potential.
If we have the opportunity to meet and if you want, we will be happy to share all this with you...
What I Can Share with Hosts
In addition to sharing thoughts, trips experiences, life experiences, etc. (as usually happens between Couchsurfers), we can offer you - if it is appreciated - a relaxing and anti-stress massage to thank you for your hospitality.
We are convinced that, never as at this time, there is a need to relax body and mind and, after more than 10 years of experience, we know that holistic massage can be a powerful tool in this regard helping the person who receives it - apart from rare cases in which it is not welcome - to dissolve and release the accumulated tensions and to find lightness, peace, calm, serenity, good mood, joy of living and "new clean energy".
For all these reasons we believe that this is really the best "gift" that we can offer you...
