About Me

I am a clean, tidy, really curious, talkative and respectful of different cultures and countries. I travelled a lot, as an environmental scientist it happens I am unemployed so I use to leave from my country and live around in the world making different experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It often happens I host my friends and friends of my friends on my couch so I thought "Ok, let's do it as a couch surfer!"...sometimes I need to travel for conferences etc. and I would really love to stay with local friends, stay like at home!

Interests

I am super sporty, beach volleyball player, sailing, parkour and cycling (I am able to fix bicycles too ;-). I'm easy going, very used to live with people, I don't smoke, and I love cooking Italian original food with a good wine company for my friends!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled through north Brazil relying only on my backpack, feet and few money asking help to people or a lift to travel. I did the same in North Australia and I tried to live and understand aboriginal way of life, I slept outdoor, cooked in the fire etc.
Travelling trusting people and nature is the most amazing thing I had ever done!
I have just come back from a month expedition in the Pacific Ocean, sampling plastic in the Great Garbage Patch....yeah could be considered amazing too!
