I spent the last few years travelling and working as a videographer, mostly making videos to promote social and environmental programs in East Africa, India, Germany and Colombia. Now I have moved to the UK to study and work as a Science and Natural History filmmaker. I am settled for the first time in 6 years!

Nowadays I spend my time doing research for films about wildlife and environmental issues, and making the films. I also do a lot of outdoor sports and little adventures in the countryside.

I love dancing, eating, exploring cultures and nature. I am super laid-back, independent and don't party a lot.

As a traveler, I love immersing myself in completely different lifestyles and cultures, and spending loads of time in the wilderness. I'm very sporty and healthy, and my favorite plans include water and adventure sports.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling solo, not only because I enjoy spending time on my own, but because I have the opportunity to meet people very easily, and the best travel experiences are related to the people I meet on the road.

I have done a lot of surfing around the world, mostly through my friends' friends. I love giving that possibility to others and was always a keen guide when I lived in my hometown.
I strongly believe in sharing, and prefer exchanges that are not monetary.

This website is giving a lot of people the possibility of travel experiences that go beyond the tourism industry, and I love it!
