About Me

New on Couchsurfing. I’m a philosopher and linguist traveling first to Bosnia to walk in the traces of his roots, and then to Italy to walk the St Francis pilgrimage from Florence to Assisi.

Welcoming tips, suggestions, and interesting encounters :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just joined, so I don’t have any couch surfing experience yet, but here’s why I joined: To have interesting encounters and an authentic experience while I’m traveling, and offer the same to other travelers when I’m at home.
