CURRENT MISSION

find my way, and take with me the more people that I can.......

ABOUT ME

I'm Paolo, I grew up in the suburbs of Rome. Loved and hated this place, so soon I started travelling, working abroad, and soon I realized that I had left.
I have seen many beautiful places around the world, traveled Asia, volunteered and worked in Australia, and all around Europe.
Love Italy, and our burning temper, but dislike our politics, so I am pretty happy to live somewhere else.

Love to meet interesting people, but I think that the greater goal is to have a normal life, be normal people.
So I love common people, like me, trying to make a wonderful experience of their life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been living in several cities in the last years and I always enjoy to meet new people, locals and travellers.
I am getting older, but looks like I haven't given up on Having Fun :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Increasing! I don't use Couchsurfing often, but every time I do is a great experience.

Or sometimes I use my warmshower profile, a cyclist kind of Couchsurfing, much more basic, where often people have no energy to go out and play after a long day cycling:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

many of my friends, they are really funny.....

I have swum with a teenage shark in the Australian Great Barrier Reef :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Always wanting to be the student and needing to learn and know more!
I am a teacher of Italian language as a 2nd language (to foreigner) and in the past I used to teach music.
I am as well a bike mechanic, and if you need I will be happy to have a look at your bike.
I have learnt that I prefer to learn rather than to teach, but I am quite good at teaching as well (I am a patient guy). I am sure that life will guide me in the right direction.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Friendship, company, fun!
See the local area, great food, telling stories.
Unfortunately we don't have a house and often we are guest somewhere so we can't host, but we love to meet and help other people.
