ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Cristian, living in Avigliana, a small town halfway from Torino to the mountains.
I'm an easygoing person, full of interests, looking forward to meet new friends, making new experiences, travelling and feeling fine.
I'm a forester, I grew up in a tiny village in the countryside of Piedmont; I love every kind of ourdoor activity, so I would be glad to share this with you too!

PHILOSOPHY
“Keep close to Nature's heart… break clear away, once in a while, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.” — John Muir

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To share my life with nice people and discover the world through people that i host/i'm hosted by! as everyone here, i suppose!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

+++ Back to CS after what, 7 years?!? Hope to find the same old good vibes use to get from this wonderful community+++

I did a lot of couchsurfin in California, when I've been hosted, together with my friends, during our 3-weeks trip there. Since I live in a shared apartment, I use to occasionally host couchsurfers to make my weekends unforgettable!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchiking alone from Sweden to home in 4 days! everything was improvised and super funny! I met so many great people, always kind and generous... it was my first time hitchiking ever, and 2500 km are a good start i suppose : )

Hiking around the world over 4000 meters of altitude in Morocco and Perù during my last trips! Mixing travels and mountains is my passion!
