Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best way to get to know a city, is to follow the locals. If you would like to visit Amsterdam or Utrecht and see all the special spots, send me an email and I'll show you the nicest cafes, squares, shops and parties.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In 2011 I decided with a friend to visit Sardegna (Italy) spontaneously , as tickets were only 14 euros. I registrated at Couchsurfing to find a place to stay and got in touch with a very friendly local who welcomed us warmly in his beach house. As by then I was convinced by the power of Couchsurfing. What's better than share stories with fellow travellers, meet new friends and treating your guests!

So far I surfed 6 times and hosted 9 times.

Surfed: Italy (Alghero), Argentina (Buenos Aires 2x, Rosario 2x), Iran (Isfahan)
Hosted people from: USA, Costa Rica, Germany, Spain, Croatia, Hungary, Argentina (3x)

Another great thing about Couchsurfing is making friends. Most of the people I met on Couchsurfing I still have contact with. Some people where I did Couchsurfing have already surfed my home.
