About Me

I am a young person in mind, and try to always be that way. Adventurer and interested in living experiences. Kind of best of both worlds, the wanderlust one and the professional one. Employed as a civil engineer but also a certified scuba-diver. Love hiking and getting lost in the nature.
Married with the love of my life and my school sweetheart. Usually always travel together. Love learning about the cultures and obsessed with languages, always trying to learn at least the basics.
Love to laugh and read inspirational quotes. Environmentalist, nature and animal lover.

"When you know better you do better". I am a very carrying person. One thing that represents who am I it is empathy. I love to laugh and pretty much never get mad, life is too short and too beautiful to lose my time being mad or fighting with someone or something.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Several reasons; one it is the cheapest way to travel around the world, second it is the best way to meet new people and hear the most amazing stories, great way to learn new languages (if the host/guest is fluent in one). And one of the most revolutionary way to be independent from the system and not rely in hotel reservations or finding one in high season. Also as my own experience it is the best way to know the non touristic places that sometimes result to be the best one.

Out of all those reasons, meeting people, visiting the non-touristic places and getting the inside view of the place are the main reasons why I couch surf .

Music, Movies, and Books

Tricky question, because one of the things that traveling teaches you is to be open minded. So I pretty much like every type of music .
Love comedies movies, but more like a TV series guy. (Game of Thrones, The big bang Theory, COSMOS, etc)
Spirituality and meditation books, biographies, and most of all scientific facts and studies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach critical thinking and have rational debates in a lot of subjects.
I want to learn more languages, and learn how to be a better person for the world
I can share all my experiences and my knowledge.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share all my knowledge. I can share all my stories. I can share company or help within the house or with a trip. Because sometimes you need a buddy to get in to a trip.
