Hi everybody :)
My name is Federico, I'm 25, and I come from Italy! I live in a small village near Venice (1 hour by car) but now I mostly stay in Trento, the place where I study..
I love travelling and see new places but, most of all, I love meeting new people from all around the world!
My first great trip was to Dominican Republic, in 2010, as an exchange student with AFS. I lived with a dominican family for 10 months, I went to school and hang out with a lot of fantastic people! It was a gorgeus experience and I learnt a lot! DR is a beautiful land, I always call it "mi islita bella" and I recall this experience as the best I've ever had.
Now, I'm studying Architecture (I love it!) in Trento and I spend my freetime in very different ways: I play football, but sometimes me and my friends go and play Squash, or go Jogging.
I like also photographing, video-making and listening to music.
Hope to meet a lot of new people with couchsurfing!

See you soon, guys,

Federico :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd really like to discover this new kind of travel and help this world growing up!
Meet new people and help others to come and visit my area!

Interests

I love travelling and see new places, meet new people and cultures, meet new friends!
I love sports! I play football, but I also like running and swimming. Me and my friends often go playing Squash and Table Tennis.
But one of my favourite hobbies is Photography and Video-Making!
I love music and dancing: I love salsa, bachata and merengue
I used to play the guitar in a group called "Shining Slope" but I switched to a Yellow Ukulele when I started travelling, it fits perfectly in a hand luggage :)

Living abroad as an exchange student with AFS. It was a wonderful and unique experience and I suggest it to everybody! An experience which changed my life and the way I live it :)
