COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One night in Milano (2011), the host was called Alessandro and I will never forget his kindness after waiting for me for 1hr at the main train station because back then the train couldn't manage to get through the snow :(

Ended up having a great time and a couple of good conversations.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

Well if I see myself learning from anyone, it would be: kind, independent, courageous and hard working individuals wherever they are!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Short/Long walks depending on how interesting the person is or, alternatively, depending on how amazing the scene can be!

Haha not everyone is interesting ;)

An entrepreneurial approach to difficult things. An oriental dance session. A session in Middle Eastern Politics or International Law. Some very good dishes. And a Cuba Libre?
