Well, the best way to describe me is a nerdy adventurous vegan. I’m an engineer by degree and surprisingly my social skill aren't that awful, at least I don't think so. I enjoy meeting new people, being immersed in their passions, sharing crazy stories and being exposed to different viewpoints on difficult topics.

My life mission is to sail the world and visit as many countries as possible while hopefully leaving a positive foot print along the way. I love animals more than most people and my retirement plan is to start an animal sanctuary. My free time is mainly consumed by rock climbing and sailing, but hiking, camping and diving might occasionally squeeze their way in there.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To share my couch and local knowledge while also sharing experiences and ideas with new people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have some much more to learn, but I think I have enough knowledge to teach you how to sail, rock climb and have fun outdoors.

Life stories, jokes, my love and respect for animals, a delicious Italian meal and a glass of wine at a local resturant or my passions and dreams, if you are interested.
