I started in April 2016 my first long term trip by bike, and I end it up in Norway after 15months on the road and 12000km.
This year I travelled from home to NorthCape for more than 7000km in 3months cycling swimming and running to break a world record of the longest triathlon.

To host a stranger in your city, to help him, to hear his stories, make you feel like you’re traveling even if you remain in the same place as always. It’s awesome.

ABOUT ME

A curious, enthusiastic and open-minded sportsman. I like meeting locals and learning about their culture, ways of life and the story about their region.
I'm interested about all culture fields, from computer science (my main skill) to many subjects of the liberal arts education such as literature, languages, philosophy, history, mathematics and most of all psychology (I'm learning how our brain works).
Basically I'm sport addicted: I'm a triathlete; I swim I bike and I run as much as I can and I also love basketball. I used to play basketball for many years and I still practice it sometimes.
I also love cyclotourism and I'm planning to travel the world with my bike.
I like to alternate from body activities to mental so that when I rest my body I can use my brain and vice versa.

PHILOSOPHY

Learn and share what you know

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I don´t belive that Couch Surfing is a way to get a free accomodation, for me CS is an experience, a way not only to visit a place but to know it and to know people who are living there. Therefore I never ask for a couch if I am not sure that I want to spend time with my host, and to know him/her. Please keep this in mind if you decide to ask me for a couch request.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a person last summer, it was a great experience!
