About Me

i define myself a serial traveler. Travel around the globe is definitely different than being a tourist: travelers go to observe the world and every time come back with a new different perspective of their reality. Tourists, instead, bring their world to the place they travel to, and judge the world through their (narrow) perspective.

pretty determined and stubborn, however genuine, honest and consistent. Really enjoy when (seldom) meet other fellow very consistent people :)

Super foodie (funny enough but i don't cook), wine lover, very outgoing, have lots of interests plus enjoy organizing social events despite spend most part of my time working (7 days).

Living in the very centre of florence (few steps from main cathedral) i know well my city, not only all restaurants, bars, cafes and plenty of people, but also (especially) secret or hidden gems, happy to share with travelers who like to see the place from the eyes of a local and not being just tourists

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

extending network!

I'm comfortable with males /females /LGBTQ+.
Prefer not to host couples /families /children or teenagers.
Nothing against anyone of course (i wish i was that young too!) just don't share similar interests /lifestyles.

DISCLAIMER: I consider myself organized and reliable. Everyone who knows me know he/she can trust my word and that i tend to make things happen when i commit to anything, otherwise will duly inform about any change not to waste anyone's time. I consider it a matter of respect.
Thus, I expect the same behaviours by others, so i would appreciate hosting well organized surfers who make sure they have enough data on their phone, enough battery or a power bank with them etc.
Don't appreciate vagueness, people who disappear or delays answers when they are guests because i consider it disrespectful ("my phone died", "something came up" and similar are red flags for me :))
Of course unexpected events can happen to anyone. Just, as a matter of fact, they happen most times to certain ppl and very seldom to others :)
