Hi! I'm Filippo (but many call me Phil) and I'm a MSc student based in Bari, south Italy.
I was born in Lecce but I moved to Bari when I was 18 to continue my studies.
I love traveling, making new friends and sharing knowledge and happy moments with them. I'm open to new experiences and I hope to meet many travelers from all around the world and to spend great moments with them!
If you want to know more about me check out my Instagram (instagram.com/philingspace) or find me on Facebook (as Filippo M. Conte).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I live on my own in my house so I think I can take advantage of this situation to help travelers that are looking for a place to sleep or someone to guide them through the city.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love rock and soul, blues and jazz. Sometimes I listen to classical music.
I read a lot of books, most of them are scientific books or modern novels (I love Murakami and Bradbury). For what concerns films.... I watch every one of them. Really. From Quentin Tarantino to Woody Allen, from Star Wars to The Last Samurai. I'm in love with films.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I really like going around my city to explore narrow streets and old castles or churches so I can share my interest in history and art (and good places to have fun obviously). I am also really good at cooking so I can prepare some good traditional lunch or dinner for my hosts.
