hey guys!!!!

I'm Gio: fun, unpredictable, happy and energetic human that loves to experience the world and learn (and live!)

I'm a professional hitchhiker (if that's a thing 😄), and i just love CouchSurfers, camping, and volunteering. From sleeping under the stars to helping at farms and hostels, im always up for whatever adventure comes on the way.

i believe the real treasure of traveling isn't in the places you visit, but in the people you meet and the moments you share. Through CouchSurfing, we've made friends in the most unexpected places and created memories that'll last a lifetime.

Currently exploring: AUSTRALIA 🌍

wanna meet? let me know!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want my trips to be more than meeting some tourist.
I want my memories to be about the people not about the places.
And the couchsurfing community is just unbeatable!
