Simone is a great person, we meet in the last CS meeting in bari and at Gianluca's birthday. He beleive so much in CS and make so many things for envelope the project in Puglia.

Thank you a lot for your welcoming message to help me on my first steps at couchsurfing community!!! Very nice from you:)

Simone hosted me and my friend in Bari for two days. He's a lot of fun and he's joking really ALL the time :) Thanks Simone, hopefully see you again some times!

The destiny decided to connect us in the nice city of Italy - Bari:) Later we met on CS/HC meeting, which was organized by him (it was really nice party with around 50 ppl & Simone had a power to take care all of us!).
He is just wonderful guy!Frm de first min I saw him,I felt how positive & warm energy is coming frm this person.He is clever man with a big experience.He is very good listener(thx for all Ur advices).He is objective and honest.He is a good dancer as well.I can talk about him endless,but shortly there are not that many great ppl in this world like Simone & I feel lucky to meet with him.P.S.:I spent in Italy quite long time, but if not this guy I'll never taste famous italian pancerotta:)& I loved to go with him on motorbike(it was second time in my life)!Take care and see you again somewhere!tvb

I was only in Bari for just over 24hrs, but it felt like days thanks to Simone's vibrancy and generousity, and his great friends. We went to a huge CSing meeting he had organised, ate delicious food I still dream about, met his mum, went to a gorgeous beach town and he even dropped me to the ferry building. Thank-you Simone for an unforgettable time, see you soon when I return to Bari!!! Upon return: Another unforgettable time in Bari. Simone you rock! Thank you so much for welcoming me back in to your crazy world for a weekend. Hope to see you again x

He e mailed me six months ago...when I decided to travel all around this beautiful world and I told him that I would arrive in Europe, I thought that he would die if I didn't go to visit him...I WENT...I spent three awesome days with him...He introduced me to the mafia,drugs, guns and his mum, in fact: the real italian culture...
To be honest and not too silly, this guy is nice and tolerant,to conclude: a very beautiful meeting during my trip.

It was nice to have Simone as a local guide. He is a nice and charismatic person, always trying to talk with everyone, no matter in which language. Hey, Simone, you are already doing a good job in your portuguese, just need to go there again to practice a little more! :) And I am sure you will be welcome there or where ever you are going! :)

Simone is simply great. I'm not sure if the feeling's mutual as I felt he did more for me than the other way around. I'd like to apologise for any wrong doings though...
Back to Simone... I met him via the "Welcome to Couchsurfing" e-mail he sent me a month ago. I took the opportunity to visit Bari during my Italy trip despite everyone saying there's nothing in Bari... I learned that Bari is BEAUTIFUL. Thanks for being a great host, Simone. See you in Malaysia with my "London souvenir" ;D

Simone is the nicest boy i've ever met..he's so nice..especially when he worries and cares for me that i'm so young,unlike him!!!..he's my favourite uncle=))))!!!

very nice person, so funny, and interesting...

He is great!! Before meeting him I was often wondering if in this small part of the world called Bari there were some people like him, and if so, where were they hidden!! Now I know, thanks to this guy who organized the first HC/CS meeting in Bari, and since then many other moments of great fun!! From the very beginnig I felt him like a great friend, and of course he still is :)

Simone is an asset to the CS community. He is so much fun to be around, but you can also have serious conversations with him. He is charming, intelligent, polite, and sweet. You couldn't find a better host. I was sad to leave.

I will definitely see you again, Simone. Thanks for all the great memories! <3

Simone in few time has became one of best friend of mine. he is always avaible not only hosting but also listening. Very generous boy, you can always trust in him. i spent wonderful time with him drinking beer looking the sea from his balcony

Apart from being extremely friendly and smart, Simone holds the merit of introducing to me the girl that became my girlfriend.

Simone was the best welcome for me in Bari, I spent my first two days with him and true baresian people-he is funny active and nice!thanks for the kindness of your hospitality

Simone is really quite a shy person and if you are able to spend a couple of weeks with him you might be able to get to know him..... hahaha lies! I think it took about 1 min and 35 seconds before I felt like I was one of Simone's long lost friends. Im most greatful to Simone for his ability to make people feel so at ease, it means so much when you're travelling for 8months and moving around all the time to feel like you really have a friend and not just someone you met for a couple of days. Simone has a real passion for people and every one of his friends are the most generous and kind hearted people you'll meet. I had an amazing time in Bari so much so that I spent 2 nights and then crossed oceans to come back and see Simone two weeks later :) I had so many good nights with him, so much good food (i think he contributed to 5 extra kilos on my body) and too much laughing. Im sure he'll force me to be back in Bari soon :) much love x

Simone was an absolutely fabulous host! He showed us the perfect Itlaian time, complete with a birthday party and pizza night with his friends. Simone is such a generous person who ensured I had the best possible time. Simone does however need some more intense Australian training, complete with vegemite tasting!! Thanks for an incredible time!

Simone was great!! It was a shame we didnt have more time to spend with him, and we were sorry that we had so many things going on at the same time he was here! Simone was a very easy-going, friendly and funny guy :) We had some fun times, definately!

Theres still more to see in Helsinki, so you´re of course welcome to stay at our place again! :) And italy would be great as well...

Oh, and thanks for the splendid cookings done with Maaria! :D

He was hosted by friends of mine who I was also visiting and we hanged out a night with a friend of his. He seemed to be a very fun, open and nice guy, and very easy-going! Thanks for the company! :)

It wasnt a good idea to trust this person.

It was a really bad mistake to host him. He didnt respect me as he should have.

I think his behaviour is not approriate for an ambassador. I think he hasnt understood the idea of Couchsurfing.

You're SUCH a nice guy - and a very good ambassador for CS and Italy! :D

I picked up Simone from the airport in Bergamo the night before his trip to Finland. Although we did not get to spend much time together, I hope he appreciated the midnight piadina and the flash lift to the airport in the morning, without even getting him a coffee...!

Simone is a nice guy and a professional cs host. We had a lovely aperitivo by the sea and got to meet some of his charming friends. Unfortunaltely we had to leave early the next day to carry on travelling. Hope the car is working again ;)

My Italian godfather!!! We were writing for ages and I totally fell for his sense of humour... But he tried to make me believe that he’s this shy!!! I didn’t believe it then, and after spending a week with him... I still don’t!!! :D Instead he has a really strong character, he’s stubborn and straight forward and he seems to enjoy driving me crazy... He can also be the biggest gentleman, but only if he want’s to be, haha! And for some STRANGE reason he seems to think that men are better drivers than women... ;)

But he has a huge heart and a skill to make everyone around him fall in love with him... Even my grandfather, who didn’t understand anything he said. :) What can I say... He’s just wonderful.

well i know you don't need a reference but i just wanted to thank you for everything, you thought me a lot about CS and i feel glad i got the opportunity to host you i mean an ambassador.. wow .. my first flag in my profile :) i am happy you finally know what's a Tomino! i had a lot of fun this week-end and that's why i hope to see you soon!! hopefully i will tell you about more CS experience too or else you will have to take me with you around ;)

After emailing for many months the fact that we were actually going to meet was so exciting! Simone was very prepared for our arrival with food, CS plans, beach, touring and a warm generous spirit. He has a love of people it was my pleasure to finally meet you! Thank you for your hospitality.

Let me host you one day

Angela - Canada

Don simone was a very lovely guy, lots of fun. We had dinner with him and some other couchsurfers at his house. I have no doubt that he makes a fantastic host.

Simone organized a CS meeting on one of the beautiful beaches of Salento. It was awesome: nice atmosphere, good sea food (mmmm) but especially great company. I really loved that cosy day. Hope to see you again someday!

Ah .... Simone the host with the MOST! Simone is one of the most gracious, warm-hearted hosts that I was blessed to have stayed with during my trip in Italia. I had a perpetual smile on my face because I was always laughing when he was around. He made sure ANGela and I ate the best food while we were in Puglia -- SO much food and was constantly hearing "Patrizia, dai, dai .... mangia!" The weekend at the beach was fabulous and I couldn't have experienced the sights, the food and the southern Italian hospitality if it weren't for this wonderful man and his lovely friends.

If he allows me (I promise to bring you a new set of sheets), I want to come back next summer to see more of Puglia, and create more memories with you and your friends.

I know Los Angeles is so far down the list on your "to do" list, but when and IF you decide to visit, my door will always be open for you.

Grazie di tutto Simone. Tu sei MOLTO gentile!

Un grande abbraccio e baci, Patrizia

I met Simone in Porto Cesareo in a Cs Meeting. He was a great ambassador and organizator of the meeting

Simone is a very nice person and a good friend!!

I met him in a meeting of Cs in Porto Cesareo (LE)

Simone, what can I say about him.. Bari would just not have been the same without him..I was in Bari with my friend and we were guests in the house of Simone. It was my first experience in CS. Simone is the best!!! We spent about one week in his house. For me he is a very particular person, open minded, funny, good-talking and curious. He was trying to improve my perfect Italian with his Bari’s dialect…it was funny)) and I was teaching him Russian, so now I am a proud teacher of a great student. We cooked him some Russian meal and he eat all,..even if it was not so tasty : D, so it means that he is a very polite person.
You can’t be in better hands.

Simone..sei stupendo!!! Una cosa che mi non piace che sempre dimentica chi e’ il BOSS!!!!
1 000 baci

Simone was very useful and available while I was Asking him info about an event in Puglia.
Unluckly I didn't come to that meeting.
Hoping to see Simone early in September event in Praia

Simone is a great person :)! Very sympathetic and a person with big heart! :)

Simone is a wonderful host! He takes care a lot of his guests..picked us up from the train station and let us share with him wonderful appulian food:)!
Thank you!

Simone was a very gracious host, making me feel right at home, introducing me to lots of fun and interesting people, and showing me the "sights" of Bari! If you ever go along that area, it would be a shame not to meet him!

Don Simone is one of the best people I know. We met in Praia, in Martinas couch and then he host me in Bari after that. He make me happy for the next days, he has the most confortable couch in Italy (I slept like a baby), he gave me really good tips, we have a really good time together.
I enjoyed everything, even that he made fun of me and my strange way of eating -ice cream for breakfast for example- :)

Simone hosted me for 2 days in Bari...He was nice gaving me suggestions of what to see around Bari. I enjoyed a lot the lunch and the afternoon with her mother!!!:) One evening, he tried to make a move on me, wich made me feel a bit awkward, even if he apologized to me after. Overall, I had an enjoyable stay and Simone was welcoming and informative.

That was my first experience ever to stay in someones couch and I must say it was great. Simone is a very experienced host:-) He picked me from the airport and took me to the fiesta:) I also met his friends which was cool. In general I had fantastic time in Puglia. If someone is thinking about visiting Bari (and Valenzano) - I will definitely recommend Simone's couch. Grazie mille Simone :-D

simone is a fantastic person full of sens of humor and hospitality....i'm sure that every one will tell the same thing after have meet him....

Through fantastic Martina from Praia a mare I was put in touch with this fantastic person who embodies everything which positive about exchanging hospitality.. I ""tasted"" his capacity or organisation and easy handling the Bari hospitality during my three days stay in that beautiful city

We met in Bari, fantastic experience with him and the group CS Bari, sin arriving late to the party ;) I hope to return as soon as possible!!
Thank you!

I LOVE SIMONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Simone is a joyfull and extremely helpfull anbassador for CS on Bari: I feel very greatfull about him, and can host him anytime he wants to come near by Toulouse: Gracie mille, Simone !

Simone is a funny guy~He always likes to tease his friends and creates nicknames for them...We have a lot of fun together, with jokes and meat...Hope we would see in the near future!

Simone is a nice guy! We met in a call center in Galway, while he was searching a bed and breakfast and I was reading my email...
Then, we spent a good night toghether, also with our friends. Great Simone! I hope to see again...maybe in Italy?

Simone è l'essenza del gruppo...attivo, vivo.
Eh bravo Simone!
We met twice in cs meetings, Simone is a great person...
A presto.

Simone is very funny!I met him in cs meetings and I like his gags and his ability to organize cs meetings.Simone don't worry for your memory!I'll give you an integrator the next meeting! ;)

I was wondering, do you have a hair dryer? Ha ha. This is a really nice guy, we had a lot of fun together and a lot of god chats in bars and at our host place, I hope to meet you in Bari in the future my friend and I promise this time I'm just not going to take a ferry

We stayed with the same host and roamed Dublin together some days. Very fun guy and easy going.

Simone was a really really great host!!! I have heard that Italians are crazy drivers, and simone really lives up to that saying!He is a really interesting character and I had a super good time in Bari with him, he took us out a lot and let us try out so much italian food. I really enjoyed my stay in Italy with him and I will definalty come back someday, but I will learn better Italian. :P

unfortunatly it was only one evening that we spent together! it was so nice and really funny... but i'm thinking of going back to puglia for another week, cause it's a very beautiful region! so, see u! ;)

simone who is now a good friend of mine;),made my visit to Bari unforgettable..in few days i had met loads of people as witty as him,tasted loads of delicious food(that i never pronounce them correctly..anyway!),visited many nice places..talked about many many thingsù(eventhough he is so SHY:D)..what else could be nicer than this(believe mee!!)as a present i cooked him an awful turkish cafe and almost burning his wonderful flat:)
Beside this he has strong charecter that you can count on and talk freely without worries:)for me Bari was wonderful with Simone..thanks!!kisses for you and all your friends!

Simone...Simone...what can I say about Simone...
he is a great friend of mine, and that's it!!!

If you get Simone's sense of humour you'll be entertained all the time you're in his company. He was a delightful and easy guest (he even slept with another CS as I was double booked) - we had great fun. See you in Bari.

Simone is a must if you want to pass by Bari! He is a very good host and can make really the difference about your experience in Bari! He's smart, funny and passionated to music and life!
But be careful to one thing only...he has a defect...he's forgetful... :-)

You were super nice Simone, i am sorry we nearly destroyed your laptop/mobile/door etc, we did not intend to..t was just a blond day. i hope i might see you here up in milano. Grazie mille!!!

He came for 2 consecutive years, in summer, in salento and he was a guest in my house. One person really fantastic and whose trust

Simone is a good guy - experienced surfer, resourceful and friendly. Direct at times, he is a good conversationalist and expouses the CS sprit very well - I hope to meet him again!

simone il mio amico...he is a real italian boy with heart and soul. without him we would be lost in dublin. símone was our navigation sytsem. he is always ready for party and has a distinctive sense of humor...looking forward to meet him in italy with anna :-)

Simone is a great lad, and it was my pleasure to host him. He is brilliant at going out and meeting people and introducing himself, which was quite a task considering the number of folks we had in our house that night! Housemates thought he was great, and got on well with him. Had some good chats too about Couchsurfing and Religion. I'm a big fan of Simone!
