About Me

I have been on the road for quite a while now, I cannot really say when I started travelling. Was it the first time I left my home country ? The first time I crossed a border all by myself ? The first time everything around me suddenly felt so unknown and strange that I started to feel sick from fear ?
What I can surely say is that I am very happy that the adult I became remained loyal to the little child I used to be, the one who wanted to live wild and free.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After 3 years of cycletouring from Greece to Kazakhstan along the Silk Road, I am on my way back to the Western world... and that might be one of the biggest challenges of this adventure !
On my way back home, I'd like to continue meeting people and discover new places along with locals.

I have been traveling with my partner all those years and we used to meet couchsurfers through his profile (@Marco Goldin, you can check out his profile to find references regarding me). Now I am hitting the road on my own so, for this part of the trip, I updated my profile in order to continue meeting curious travelers and welcoming hosts along the way.

Interests

The more I travel the more I want to go and see further, the more I learn the more I realize how little I know, and I am sure one single life will never be enough to satiate my curiosity for this world and for all the amazing creatures living out there.
🌎

I like to travel slow, taking time to really feel the places I'll be passing through and the people I'll get to meet on the way.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to read a lot and I love to read authors from the countries I am traveling through. Same for music, poetry and movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many extraordinary adventures...! Not to be written here but to be told by world of mouth - that's also why we like to meet, right ? 😉

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like cooking and sharing a good meal and, since I've been on the road for quite a while, I enjoy even more the pleasure of a real kitchen, which gives so many more option than a single camping cooking pot !
I like to have a good talk and share interests, tell and hear stories, I love music even if I'm not quite a musician myself.
