ABOUT ME

Hello couchsurfer!
My name is Quentin and I come from France. Last year I got a job in Milano and came to Italy for the first time! Before I was seeing Italy like a place I would visit when I grow old and grumpy, where I would drink wine somewhere in a village of Tuscany. Now I'm glad life sent me to this unexpected direction otherwise I would have missed too many things, starting with italian food obviously.
So what else about me? I think I'm a spontaneous person, always curious for other cultures and ways of thinking. Usually I like to take things slow and enjoy what's going on. I like spending time on my own but also meeting people, there's a balance to everything.

PHILOSOPHY

As Georges Moustaki used to sing, "nous avons toute la vie pour nous amuser, nous avons toute la mort pour nous reposer"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I found out about couchsurfing in 2013/14 and then didn't use it until now. It came to my mind that it would be much more fun and interesting to visit the country with locals. Learning from a place through the daily life and stories of people is definitely the best.
Couchsurfing is about hospitality and human interaction, it's worth supporting
