About Me

Hi, I am Luca and i am back in my hometown Rimini (Italy)

I lived most of my adult life in Norway (12 years) where i had an amazing experience.

CURRENT MISSION

I am looking for something to believe in

ABOUT

I don't drink alcohol much, nor i smoke funny stuff...

I was born and raised in Rimini, Italy. Since 2008 i have been living kind of permanently in Norway where i also was exchange student twice before, during my university years.
In the meanwhile I lived temporary in Germany (Hannover, Osnabrueck, Riesenbeck, Dresden), Poland (Szczcecin) and Portugal (Lisbon) as well, but Norway is my favorite... So i got the chance to move around quite a lot, but not as much as i would love to yet. Now i am back in Rimini, my hometown, in Italy
Hope to discover more of this planet =)
I had few amazing trips as to Patagonia, Turkey, Iceland

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too short to worry to much, let's try to take it easy and learn and do as much as possible

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCH-SURFING

Since i joined in 2008 i av been a very active host (i believe more than 300 people passed on my sofas...) and a quite active surfer: i still travel Couch-surfing by myself or with mine. I really devoted quite a lot to this community since it is giving me so much to learn and discover!

Now living in Rimini I don't often have the opportunity to host, still I would enjoy a lot to meet some travelers =)

COUCH-SURFING EXPERIENCE

Many, most of the them very beautiful, exciting, enriching me in terms of good vibes, smart ideas, learning new prospective about how to look at things and getting inspired for new trips. After all is a fast way to meet people with common interests (above all beer tasting and traveling) and make friends easily.

- Hiking
- History
- Swimming
- Gym-Training
- Foreign languages and dialects/language history/linguistic
- Snowboarding / skiing
- Free walking tours
- Traveling when i have the chance.
- Dressing with seconds hands stuff
- Street art
- Flea-markets
- Music
- Documentaries

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Punk, Ska, Italian and foreign underground rock, Grunge, oi!, street music/street artist. I might be going to the Bay Fest 2022, Bad Religion and Flogging Molly

Books: I was much into Scandinavian literature, especially romances. Now i do like more historical books. Last book: Terror in the Arctic, a real story of Finnmark (Northern Norway) during the WWII

Movies: honestly not really my passion but again, historical movies or documentaries instead... I watch them constantly, there is always something to new to learn. Lately I watched series as Vikings or CSI Miami
