Hi! I'm Simone! I'm an Italian-French globe trotter with a passion for photography and adventurous trips.
Travelling is for me a drug. I love travelling slowly, alone, so that I can better appreciate the places I go through and the people I meet. I travel to learn, to learn about new cultures, about parts of the history I've never had been taught at school and about people.
I think that through travelling we can better understand the time we are living in.
This is the reason why I decided to take a sabbatical year in October and take my time to explore. I spent 3 months in the spectacular island of Lanzarote to reconnect with nature. In February I started a journey to reach Central Asia without taking the plane going through the Balkans, Turkey and the Caucasus.
I did it!!!
And now I'm slowly coming back home always by land :)Hitch

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I'm on this platform to make meaningful encounters and get to know the local life!

Centres d'intérêt

I've been VERY passionate about photography since I was young.
I now focus especially either on landscapes, street photography, architecture or nude photography. You can find out more on my 2 IG accounts: simobergz and antimonyberg.
For what concerns nature, I LOVE hiking, I spent most of my journey to Central Asia hiking on the mountains of Montengero, Armenia, Georgia and Kyrgyzstan. I love the feeling of freedom when I'm alone in the wild.
