About Me

I am an Italian "young professional", currently working in Den Haag. I have lived in many countries during my yet pretty short life: Italy, for most of the time, USA for one year during high-school, the Netherlands for 2.5 years , Belgium for 6 months and Japan for half a year. I am a very international kind of person that is enthusiastic to try anything that drifts away from my original customs, however strange they may seem :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is just a very intelligent way to travel. It's not about avoiding to pay hostels, it's about people presenting the place they live in. I like to get emotionally involved when I travel, visiting landmarks and taking pictures just isn't very attractive to me. Therefore couchsurfing lets you meet new and interesting people and solve organization problems at the same time. Just perfect.
Because I'm new to Den Haag, I am looking for companions to explore the city and surroundings with and enjoy a few signature beers together. Couch surfing is, in my opionion, a good way to find like-minded people.
Be aware that I WILL return the favor if you decide to host me / be my guest.
