ABOUT ME

you might call me a "comedian by accident". by no means could i make money telling jokes, but i often wonder if i were put on this earth so that other people could laugh at my unfortunate antics. I like to talk about music, and i love to meet new people and learn about people whose lifestyles differ from my own. i also like food. o sempre mi fame.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is best spent in the driver's seat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Italy, Sicily, London, hosted in San Marcos, Texas.
too many experiences to list now. i think to be a couchsurfing host, you must own some sort of weird pet. in london, our host had a snake that slithered free around the house like a dog, there was a rooster in palermo that crowed from 3:00 to 7:00 every morning right outside our window, a nameless deaf cat in catania, and an obese cat named emmy in roma.
