Preferred Gender: Any
Max Surfers Per Night: 5

Shared Sleeping Surface: No
Shared Room: Yes

The guest will sleep on the couch.
In a the living room , in the same there will sleep someone else as wel.




COMMUNICATION Surfer-Host:


If you confirm me that you come and I do not get a cancellation notice or any kind of
follow up, i WILL leave a NEGATIVE REFERRAL on your
profile. Many CSers are waiting for couches and you
are hurting their chances by asking for couch space
and not following up (I think that this behavior it is not respectful toward to your "possible" host neither)"






WHEN DO I ACCOMODATE:


I prefer to host in the week even if I am often busy (work and school) but I can accomodate normally (I can't promise you to show you around cause I don't know if I have time for it but just ask it!), in the weekend I go almost always somewere for CS meetings or things like this (thats mean that I dont have a couch available)

I DO ACCEPT (I even prefer it) LAST MINUTE COUCH REQUEST, read all the couch info for details.






You can check here my couch availability:



My Google Calendar



ABOUT YOU:


Please, people with empity profile (almost empity , with no comments or without pictures) try to make a profile in order to let me understand who you are.
I really appreciate the verified people (for trustworthily and to support CS Community).
If you have: Pics & Details in the profile, Feedbacks, Verification, Vouch = you have my couch for sure! (if it is available)




COUCH:


I have a big (matrimonial) Bed/sofa (and a 3 air materass!!).

I live in an appartement of 100mq, and you should stay in my room (wich is also the livingroom and is in front of the street (in the night there could be a bit of noise due few cars passing)),it's a big one, I have Parket.
I dont smoke and if you want to smoke you should to go in the terrace.
I live with 2 other persons.





PETS:


I dont have pets (animals) and better you dont bring it , sorry, I dont have place for it.





BLANKET:


I have blanket, but best you bring also a sleep bag if you can.





FOR HOW LONG DO I ACCOMODATE:


Normally I prefer to accomodate people for a copple of days (but we have just to arrange it...).





COUCH ROULES:


This is my apartment, that's just means that we should take care a bit to not destroy things and to be not super luid... I just ask to everyone to keep things clean (I have the dichwasher there si not much to do than, but you can of course help to keep things clean!!) and to be kind to my apartment.
I DON'T accept people with drugs, keep it in mind.
For safety reasons I may ask you to show me an official document.



WHERE DO I LIVE:
I live close to the central station (2018 - Antwerpen).
Close to me there is the center, with many pubs.
Out of my door there is a tram (7) stop, at 200 mt there are tram 15 - 2, the Antwerp central station is 20 minutes walking.
The airport of Antwerp is 10 minutes far by car.




TIPS:


Make your hosts happy and try to bring a sleeping bag or a sleeping bag liner and slippers (cause we dont use shoes inside the apartment).
For the food I dont know if I can provide you something, it depends, maybe I have no time to cook or I have no food, than, dont aspect me to be your restaurant (sorry if I write it but I had some strange experience with guest who thought to be in a restaurant!).





EXTRA TIPS:


If you need a simcard for your mobile phone while traveling:
www.prepaidgsm.net
(there are Sim cards with which you are free of charges to receive calls almost everywhere in the World)





ABOUT ANTWERP:



There is a lot to visit here and in the places around (Brussels is just 30 minute by train; Gent 1hr, Brugge 1hr, Paris 3hrs, Amsterdams 3hrs, London 3hrs, Cologne 2hrs).
I live in Antwerp cause is a "strategic place" to travel, is the heart of Europe, if you want to vist most of the europeans countries you just have to come in Antwerp to do it!








If you cannot find a host you will find a good and cheap place to sleep in the Youthhostel. They have a special low rate of only 15 euro per night.

I am an italian guy who lives since 2005 in Belgium, I live here cause from this geographic position I can travel all countries very easily.
I would love to make a traveler theater company!

I have TT passion, no , is not a car:

My main passion is Theater, I love to play, to watch good Theater and also to be director (I did already direct already something about cabaret)

The second passion is Travel!

I am a simple/complex person, I just try to adapt myself at the situation I am in.
I like Nature, I like "Equilibrium", respect for Animals (I share vegetarian ideals but I eat meat sometimes), I am Pacifist (no war, but I can fight for what I repute right)...

What do I hate:
Superficial People, people who does not think (it can seems funny but the are more than the ones who do think), Fashion , Moda, Shopping, Hunters, Squanderers,

My job?

I make often all kind of meetings;

I always suggest everyone to be verified!;
I greet a lot of new/traveling close to me members;
I don't make anymore anywelcome meeting in Antwerp cause quite much local Antwerp's CSer don't like how I make it.



I am tryng to make CS censorship-free, if you want a community where everyone can "talk" join the group:

CouchSurfing Experience



The first was in Bielefeld , great!! than in Berlin!! and then in Cologne... now I cant count it anymore... I am traveling almost every weekend with CS and I cant stop doing it!
I had super nice, quite nice, nice, almost nice, almost not nice, and no nice at all CS experiences. And, except the totally negative ones (which are also sometimes necessary) I think is important to HAVE A COMPARISON with other people, it doesn't matter whether sometimes we don't feel comfortable with someone else, I think this is the point: we have to learn to be "flexible" enough to open our thought as much as we can to get in the range on the persons next to us, and who is next to us should do the same (it doesn't work in one way! : that's the meaning of "open your door" to a surfer.

Music, Movies, Books

Movies: Adventure, Comic. (instead of TV I prefer theatre on live!).

Music: Blues; Rock, Classic Rock; Soul; Rhythm & Blues;Ska, Ska-punk; Old Rock 'n roll/pop '50, '60, '70, '80; Jazz; Classic.

About music I am a bit (MUCH) selective, I really HATE ELECTRO, TECHNO, DISCO, most of modern POP (like Eros Ramazzotti) and all think like that.. than , if you are going to go out with me , remember, I WILL NEVER GO TO A DISCO WITH THAT KIND OF MUSIC! I get depressed from it. The place I like are disco-pubs where people can easily dance and talk with no agressive music.

Singers: Fabrizio De André, Lucio Battisti, Battiato, Tony Tammaro, Punk Monital, Queen,
Books: Adventure, historical.

This is a GREAT community, since I know it I cant stop meeting new people and all that is just wonderful!

Be carefull: Luca can organize unforgettable Latin party during those few minutes you are not in the living room! And this is more than possible that you will feel not very good the next day as he is making very tasty coctails :)
Thanks for hosting us, for the crazy party and for your hospitality!

I saw Luca playing in a theatre in Antwerp. Afterwards we had a little drink together.
I was really amazed : an Italian guy playing theatre using the Dutch language ! Respect, man.
Moreover he's a great guy, always trying to help other people. I liked also the way we conversated : he can talk a lot but at the same time he's an attentive listener. I also appreciate very much his attempts to give the Antwerp people a more "southern" spirit :-). See you soon, Luca.

Luca is one of the very active CS members, especially in his "Belgian hometown" of Antwerp: his energy and enthusiasm in putting up events is quite amazing :-) !
To manage all that, balances the typical Italian craziness ;-) with some (Flemish???) sense of organisation... Sounds weird? Well, meet him and make your own jugdement :-) !
Thanks for the cool dinner!!

Luca is just a great CS host, waiting in his apartment to make you feel comfortable, having a list ready with the most important things to know about his flat and Antwerp (even explanations on how to make your bed ready for the night)
he invited me to a rehearsal of his theater group, cooked great dinners (we'll work on the popcorn ;) ) and was always ready for conversations.
Boredom never came up and I wish you the same hospitality on your upcoming journeys as you gave me.

Luca brings a great and dynamic atmosphere to the meetings he attends so never forget to invite him. We had great moments at one of the Gent CS meetings in 2007.
Then I was glad to see him and his craziness again in Lille. And when I was in Antwerp, in spite of being quite busy, he did his best to make me enjoy the city.

The car's ready. Food in the bad. Smile up to his ears. Lucas is rolling, Lucas is moving. Lucas knows how to have fun. We had a nice conversation during that wild weekend in Rotterdam. Take it easy Lucas.

luca send me an email in order to join - me an my flatmates- to go to a concert. Because im really open minded i told him to come to my place. When he camed, he looked really weird... and he started making weird things, actually because we where all girls we started to be afraid of him . THEN he told to my flatmate in italian "I have on my underwear something you are the only one who can understand"..she come upstairs and start almost to cry, i was really afraid you never know; maybe luca is a great guy, but what he said that night SCARED me !i have been using hospitality and servas for years and i never had such a problem, I PROPOSE LUCA TO MEET SOME MONTH AGO AND TO SOLVE OUR DIFFERENCES, AFTER ALL WE HAVE HAD BOTH GOOD, NOT TO SAY EXTREMELY GOOD, EXPERIENCE IN THE CS PROJECT. MAYBE IT WAS JUST A BAD NIGTH FOR BOTH?THEN- 3 DAYS AGO-HOPE HE WILL BE WILLING TO MEET ONEVDAY TO CHANGE OUR BAD PERCEPTION OF EACH OTHER!

If Luca writes me a few adjectives then i'm ready to put all the BEST adjectives from a dictionary for him (remember we were looking for one in Pele-Mele in Brussel). Meeting Luca was just very nice. We started with a meet in COOK n BOOK, then parked his CAR correctly in Place Flogey, then CS with Yam and next day we had a long walk in Brussel, then he took me to Antwerp and we had another GREAT Halloween Party in Braasschaat and for that he dressed me up. Thanks a lot for everything.

I finally ought to give Luca some credit: after meeting him several times shortly during soms CS-events, he made the effort to come to Brugge, especially to see me in a play on stage. I appreciate this very much. We need to talk some more though and I hope we will be able to work together as CS ambs in the future.

We were stuck in Antwerp and Luca welcomed us into his home. No wonder he's an ambassador. I wish we could have had an arranged visit with him so we could have spent more time together. He seems like he knows how to have a lot of fun. If he's having a meeting, Go! It will expand your mind.

When I arrived at the CS meeting, I was feeling a bit lost and Luca was the one to welcome me in a very friendly way. He's very nice and funny at the same time. He even made me change my mind about Italian people gathering.In general, I'm not in favour of this kind of Italian-only events, but I think that after talking to him I'll give it a try! See you very soon Luca
