About Me

-- CURRENT MISSION

Learning! (still)

-- ABOUT ME

I was born and bred in a small village in northern Italy, not too far from Milan.
Normal kid, normal life until one day, I decided that I was sick and tired of all of it and I started traveling and moving around.
And, apparently, I am still on the move.

So I started creating my new normal life around the world.
Few months here and few months there. Looking back now I realize that I've been visiting a few counties.
I've been for a few years in Australia, a year in USA (working at DisneyWorld, at the Italian Pavilion), another in Korea, six months in Mexico, 3 in Japan, a few around Europe, I worked on a Cruise Ship for a while, in a hotel in Qatar for a year and a half and so on... I am not gonna bother you here with all my stories.
I prefer to tell it face to face.

No idea what's next... kind of... I do have a couple of plans.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have always been using this website, even when it wasn't the main site for travelers to use, and I stuck with it when it was super popular as well.
Now, we'll see how it goes.

I have always had great experiences, you never know what's gonna happen.

-- COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Denmark - Spain - France
United States - Mexico - Italy
Finland - Norway - Faroe Islands
Japan - Poland - etc...

Interests

I like meeting new people, like everybody else on CS, I guess.
When I was in Italy I liked soccer but I don't follow it so much now, even if I'm always interested in sports, any kind of sport.

I have spent countless hours recently training for a few Triathlon events, it has become kind of my thing lately.

Oh, I like hitchhiking and bikepacking as well...

Teach, Learn, Share

I have studied Korean for a while, but it has been a long time since I practiced it. Definitely, I have forgotten it a lot and the same can be said for Spanish, but, seriously, whatever you have to teach me it's fine.

I can teach you some Italian, how to juggle or... or... I don't know, let's find it out
