Hello Fellow Surfers,

My name is Lev. I am 24 years old and am currently residing in Italy, where I am studying gastronomy. I love nature, food, music, sports, film photography, having open minded conversations to consistently grow my perspective on life, and lastly of course TRAVEL. I love blending my passions with travel, so I am always living and learning, and never "working". I love traveling to learn about other cultures, languages, and cuisine, and to always be around pretty much anything that has a pure sense of life to it. I also have a labrador retriever named Boomer, who is my best pal, so I very much enjoy animals, and can handle being around them. Overall I love life. All it has given, All that it's giving, and All that it will hopefully give. I look forward to coming across new places and peoples along this road, and sharing my passion for life with them. As it is the people that I have come across, that have given me what I'm able to give.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Figured it was a good way to learn about peoples and their culture when I'm traveling, or show them mine when I'm not.
