Why I’m on Couchsurfing

i love meeting interesting people from all over the world and traveling. many of my closest friends are people i've met traveling throughout the years. the best way i can think of to get to know a new place is through the locals, so i'm happy to meet and help out students and fellow travelers by offering up my local knowledge of milano and my couch(es) as can. of course it also seems to be a perfect fit with my frequent bike touring of other countries. obviously i'd welcome the chance to reciprocate with anyone hosting me whenever they come to milano.
