Hey everyone!

My name is Luca. I come from a very small Italian mountain town called Aosta, but after a couple of adventurous years around Europe, I finally landed in Denmark back in 2015, and now I've been living in Copenhagen since 2019.

I love talking about all kinds of interesting stuff, having a few beers and/or a nice scotch, house parties, hiking, visiting cities, going to concerts, jamming: pretty much all sort of relaxed, funny and inspiring things!

Non smoker.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because for me "to travel" means also to know the people living in the place I'm visiting. I want to hear from them what the world looks like from where they live, I want to eat what they eat, drink what they drink, hang out where they hang out.

Music, Movies, and Books

Most of what I listen to is metal or metal-adjacent, but then again, metal has a billion sub genres and sub-sub genres, so that still includes a lot of very different things. I am mostly into Death, Thrash, Heavy, Grindcore, Groove, some proggy stuff (especially if instrumental), some post- stuff, and some -core stuff.
I also like punk, punk rock, and crust, and some occasional 70s-inspired rock, Bluegrass, Folk, and Synthwave.
In general, I love to dig for new bands and discover new sounds and genres!

I have a very wide taste when it comes to movies: I love sci-fi (Alien, The Thing, the first Matrix, the old Star Wars etc), some Tarantino, documentaries, westerns, dramas, adventure, historical, comedies.
I've always been into adult animation stuff like Futurama, Beavis & Butthead, Drawn Together, Metalocalypse, and Rick & Morty, but I think my two favorite ones are South Park and Bojack Horseman.
I of course like sci-fi series as well, both modern, particularly Black Mirror, and classics such as Star Trek TNG and DS9. Also, I loved The Office and Parks and Recreation.

Unsurprisingly, I love sci-fi(-ish) literature, with my favorite authors being Isaac Asimov, Ursula Le Guin, Octavia Butler, Ray Bradbury, Arthur Clarke, and Cixin Liu. I also like the more mature comics, such as Akira, V for Vendetta, and the stuff from Zerocalcare, and I absolutely adored Watchmen and Maus.
As far as non-fiction, I enjoy reading about philosophy and the social sciences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I defeated a Japanese girl in a chopsticks challenge.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some nice Italian cooking / language skills, that's for sure, and other than that, I'd say a lot of curiosity and the will to create a super nice atmosphere to enjoy together!
