About Me

CURRENT MISSION

The world is my oyster

ABOUT ME

Always been studying working too hard. It's time to live a little.

I have left my career and went travelling across the world for one year, I am now back in Sicily for a while.

I love meeting and getting to know new people, I also love travelling of course and discovering what's out there. I like books, all kinds of sports and I enjoy listening to good music.

PHILOSOPHY

We have only one life, not another chance to make the most of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can take you around town and show you the best we have to offer in terms of outdoors, culture, food and history. I also enjoy going out party and stay up until late if it's the case.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosting lots of friends in the past however it's the first time I am actually using Couchsurfing helped also by my recent decision of travelling the world. My travel started on October 2010 and finished in December 2011. I have been hosted in Rio de Janeiro, in Valparaiso, in Buenos Aires, in Paris, in New Zealand, in Australia, and other locations in Italy.
