I have lived in the USA for more than forty years. Most of my professional career has been working on assignments in Africa.

Last year, I made a four-month road-trip across the USA. A road-trip that took me as far north as the Grand Tetons in Wyoming, as far west as Los Angeles and south as New Orleans. On the way, I was hosted by an astonishing twenty three CS hosts. It has made my trip a much richer experience than I could have ever hoped for and has left me with a profound sense of gratitude.

This was somewhat of a farewell tour to the USA for me as I plan to relocate back to Europe, preferably to Italy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I plan to travel through Italy and in particular Umbria, where I will be looking for a new place to live. I would love to meet people along the way.
