Hi everyone! My name is Alessio De Stefano, I was born in Avezzano, in Abruzzo, the green region of Italy, a real treasure full of natural parks and breathtaking landscapes. I started traveling from a very young age, a passion that I have never abandoned. I currently live and reside in my hometown, where I work as a web designer in a film production company. I have a great passion for the history of my territory, and this is the reason why in 2019 I founded a small library where I do historiographical research.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I discovered Couchsurfing thanks to two friends who travel the world. Seeing and listening to their stories I realized that it is a community where you can really discover the authenticity of places and people. Thanks to Couchsurfing I would like to travel to many places in the world to indulge my passion and do historiographical research.
