About Me

Ciao tutti!
Please read everything before sending a request to stay at my place 😉

I am adventurous, a little rebellious and enjoy questioning social/cultural norms and laws....which can get me into trouble sometimes. But I am hard to catch!

I love getting lost in cities (ending up in dodgy places sometimes), going on adventures in the wilderness: trekking, hiking mountains, skiing and mostly looking for the places less travelled.

My response to most questions is yes.

My next goal is life is to become the iceman, Wim Hof. A cold shower a day keeps the doctor away!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best things in life are with people...cool people, which seem to congregate here on cs!

I love the idea of community, and the exchange of goods without money, and that there is a trusting community of people who share the lives, stories and homes with a complete stranger - but for some reason the people you find don’t feel like strangers. Because at the end those of us that take part in this hippyish community, who are willing to put ourselves out there to help fellow travellers, in the hopes you both learn something new in the process.

Me and my brother wanna start some kind of commune type place/tourist accomodation somewhere in the mountains of italy in the next couple years...it's gonna be sweet. If you wanna be part of this experience, send in your application (i feel like couchsurfers would make a great fit for the idea we have in mind) :D

That is all.
Ciao ✊🏼

Music, Movies, and Books

I just finished the count of monte cristo and it was one of my favourite stories of all time!
I watch a lot of trash films, and haven't seen a lot of the classics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I fought my brother for womb exit bragging rights, and even though he got out first , I was definitely victorious!

Teach, Learn, Share

I was an English teacher for a couple years - so if you deep burning questions about phrasal verbs and why things are not spelt like they sound - sorry, can't help you there

I like learning how to cook different dishes from around the world, and I can cook a few things as well - risotto, focaccia barese and curries are my specialties!
