About Me

I'm a veterinary surgeon and I'm from Sicily, Italy.
I lived 6 years in Romania where I was able to have guests from all around the world and have a great time of my life.
Moved in UK where I lived for 3 years.
Now my home is Palermo, IT but I keep moving a lot for work and for my adventure on my bike, my motorcycle or with a backpack on my back.
I love every kind of sport and in my free time I am an amateur triathlete. Finished an ironman 70.3 in 2025 and signed for another one for 2026.

Will be travelling in south American in the month of January with my friend Alessandro. We have loads of story to tell and we are great fun!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because I'm looking for a "do ut des", a couch for a nice story of your culture and your experiences, it's a gain on both sides. Besides, I really love to travel and surfing a couch in another country is the most direct way to experience and discover the culture of that country.

Interests

I love to travel, to discover new cultures on every point of view, from habits to food, from music to art and so on. I play the guitar, I like to cook, and animals are basically my life.
I like anything concerning with sports, with movement, with competition.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like music in the general meaning of the term, any kind and genre, particularly reggae, dub, jazz, blues, rock, metal, rap. Lately I'm listening a lot of tool (amazing band), lots of psy trance, some Italian music you probably don't know.
I'm a fan of the lord of the ring saga, fantasy in general and video games.
Aldous Huxley, Castaneda, Tolkien, Chuck Palahniuk and many more
The Big Lebowski is my favorite movie all time, Tarantino's movies, Cohen Brothers's movies and a lot more.
I watch many TV shows and I like the trashy fun stuff that the world wide web offers us.
I absolutely love Psy trance and psy trance festivals, will attend Ozora in 2026.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycled the North Coast 500 in 9 days while wild camping overnight.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach my guest the basic guitar skills, how to swear and use your hands while speaking with Italian style! I'm always open to learn any kind of new thing, I'm always hungry for discover. I can share my passion towards animals and human beings, my love for life and for simple things. I learn from everything, the process itself it's incredibly stimulating.
Obviously I would be more than happy to share my veterinary knowledge wether you had any questions/problems with your pets!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer friendship and good company! And also free veterinary consults.
