Hi all! My name is Francesco and i'm a couchsurfer from 2009. When i logged in for the first time i was fascinated from the idea to travel and meet the world with the eyes of local people, and i'm still hungry! I like to define myself as a gipsy worker and a wanderlust traveller. I like to spend time trekking somewhere, watching movie, planning travels, dreaming, talking about something, drinking whiskey, do something new and go around.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a good way of sharing and it's a precious experience to open your mind and feel on the road staying home.
