I was born in Italy, my family is Dutch, and I lived in Texas most of my life. I live for human connection, good conversation, documentaries, podcasts, FOOD, and being outside in any condition. I will run, climb, hike, snowboard, and ride my bike pretty much anywhere, anytime... and then probably take way too many pictures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I have a room to share, I want to welcome people who are missing daily comforts and share tales of adventure!
While I travel, I find that meeting locals makes the experience of the place much more real.
I usually travel by bicycle, cook, and wild-camp on my own. I have a really nice tent, comfortable sleeping bag, and everything else I need, but sometimes it's great to re-connect with human beings... plus a hot shower and a full camera battery are pretty cool too ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Grew up in a cult and managed to wake up before it was too late.
Now I'm working on a documentary about it.
