Currently travelling solo by bike from Italy to Japan! Very happy and excited I am realising this project despite the many unfortunate events around us!
Practicals about me travelling: I do not have pets nor musical instruments with me; I do eat meat, but less if I can; I do drink alcohol, yet I am not a heavy drinker; I am not into drugs, biking and travelling are already quite addictive; I generally do not smoke and I don't like the smoke smell.

Generally on me: I am an energetic, open-minded, and positive person who generally knows what to aim at. I'd say I am quite a relatively good communicator, as I would say quite immediately how I feel. I'd say I am not (too) afraid of sharing my weaknesses. Some said I am good at connecting with people and, as I am travelling full time now, I try to carefully listen to my gut feelings. The route to Japan (or any route or journey for that matter) is no without any risk, so I'd say I calibrate my intuition with some rationality so to try to gauge on whether I am too exposed and/or at risk. I generally feel aware of myself, my surroundings, and the place I occupy in the world. I generally feel conscious of time and that is one reason why I embarked on this life-changing experience. Overall, I feel part of a wider #100%NoHesitationClub where people are excited and passionate about what they do. I strongly believe that people do come from different arenas of life and, when they share their passions with each other, they have a great time!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been for long on CS (around 20 hosts over 5 years, and being hosted similar times) but since 2015 I had not used much it any longer. I moved to other platforms after the payment requirement. Now, given that in some countries CS alternatives (e.g. warmshower, bewelcome, trustroots) are not used, I concluded I had to come back.
