Hi I'm Thomas but you can also call me Toto ! I'm an Italian-Portuguese who has been living in the French Riviera for about 12 years. I try to always smile and affect people around me positively.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I find this concept quite revolutionary. Travelling as as a tourist that only wants to go seightseeing is not fulfilling in my opinion. One should enjoy the culture and the locals in order to have a better understanding of the place one is at. This is why I am on Couchsurfing, I want to discover and help people discover the mystery behind the reality. I want to meet locals when I travel and be a landmark for those that I host or meet when I'm home. Couchsurfing highly improves the quality of the memories you bring back from all your trips : you meet a lot of fantastic and open-minded people and you end up having connections everywhere in the world. If you agree with me, we can sure be friends :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I loved sleeping in my hammock in the French Region of Ardèche, where the sun would wake me up and I would swim in the river and get full of energy very early in the morning.

I attended a Rainbow Gathering in Spain.
