About Me

***I can't host in this period, sorry! But could meetup, depending on when***

I'm some kind of eclectic human.
2 mottos that could roughly embody my philosophy are:
Less is more
You are a gift: open up, be present

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing allows me to surf other people's couches/futons/beds to travel deeper, and it also allowed me to 'travel' while staying home by hosting travellers, listening to their stories and creating new ones worth being told 🏡

Also, I love learning folk/traditional dance and music and can show you a bunch from Southern Italy.
