I work as a geologist and nature photographer, two professions that have taught me to pay attention to detail and not rush things. I'm not a loud or intrusive person: I like to observe, listen, and speak when there's something genuine to say. I thrive both in company and in silence, especially after a day spent walking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, Couchsurfing isn't a way to sleep for free, but a way to make real connections, even if brief, that often leave a lasting impression on me even more than the places I visit. I like the idea of ​​trusting others and being trustworthy myself.

Interests

• photography

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to folk, world music, and singer-songwriters, often linked to different places and languages. In films, I look for believable, not perfect, stories. I read travel books, contemporary fiction, and light essays; I always carry a book in my backpack.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ho passato settimane camminando nel Caucaso con uno zaino essenziale, dormendo dove capitava e adattandomi al ritmo dei luoghi. Non è stata un’impresa estrema, ma un’esperienza che mi ha cambiato il modo di viaggiare e di relazionarmi alle persone: meno aspettative, più attenzione.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share what I know about outdoor photography, how to organize a trek without complicating your life, or how to interpret a territory through rocks and landscapes. I'd like to improve my English, learn new simple recipes, and hear how people really live in other countries, not just how they visit them.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm reliable, clean, and respectful of space. I can adapt easily, help around the house without being asked, and share time and conversations without forcing them. If we're on the same page, I'll happily cook something Georgian or go for a walk. If not, I know how to be discreet.
