Ciao! Sono Efrem, ho venticinque anni e vivo con la mia famiglia in una casetta di campagna a pochi chilometri da San Gimignano.
Mi piace pensare di poter vivere con i piedi ben saldi per terra e la testa fra le nuvole, per non perdere di vista la felicità quando scappa un po' più in là. E ci provo, non proprio tutti i giorni ma quasi!
Assimilo saperi e riempio un bagaglio che spero di riuscire ad usare quando avrò finito il percorso universitario, ma quando posso, coi tre soldi che metto da parte, adoro partire.
Nella vita quotidiana studio, ascolto musica, gioco a calcio (ho iniziato che a malapena parlavo e ancora non sono riuscito a smettere..) e cerco stimoli in ciò che mi circonda. Li trovo nella fotografia, nella pace della campagna e nella bellezza dei suoi paesaggi, nella fantasia del "fai da te" con cui arredo la mia stanza e nelle belle persone.
Di queste ultime ne ho coltivate nel tempo una selezione speciale, cui dedico volentieri il mio spirito, nella speranza di restituire almeno la metà della gioia che mi regalano.

ABOUT ME

Hi guys! I'm a young happy soul who finds his natural habitat in the quietness of the countryside. I try to live my life without regrets, trying to fill every moment with sensations worth living and be remembered. I don't like to follow the wave, I'd rather walk the unusual path. I'm pretty independent, though I generally like to share my time with fun people, possibly doing cool stuff.
I try my best to learn the most I can from any living creature I meet, and to return the favor. I'm a mature, honest and respectful person; I love good music, photography, people with passion, any kind of animal and I enjoy sports and physical activity, from riding the bike to hiking, from soccer to billiards.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to host travelers when I can't go on a trip myself, it's just as soulfilling as traveling I believe, such a similar feeling! After travelling non stop for almost a year, from Canada to Panama, and after sharing my adventure with thousands of cool people that helped me on my way, I decided I would help other adventurers and travelers as much as I could.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been hosted by many people and families in my life, and I've really loved getting to know so many different lives. Couchsurfing is great for this, it puts people from the most different backgrounds on the same level of exchange. And it might sound stupid, but when there's an exchange, both parts get something.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Oh wow..skinny dipping in a natural pool just by the highest waterfall of North America in Yosemite, and then sitting at the edge of the cliff on Glacer's point the following morning really thrilled me! Then there are plenty of other great memories, but I'll share them in person ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

World is vaste, millions of people to meet, so many things to share, learn and teach! How am I supposed to list them all?! But yeah, independence is something I everyday crave to better learn and improve a little more..learning how to grow my own food, learning how to cook any kind of recipe, learning how to travel and live alone for weeks, learning how to behave with all the different people I meet...
