I'm a professional photographer living by the sea, where I began teaching scuba diving in 2011 — and I’ve been sharing my passion for the underwater world ever since. I’m also an avid cook, always eager to explore new culinary traditions from around the globe. A lifelong lover of art in all its forms, I find inspiration everywhere, from mountain trails to gallery walls. This is the photography project I’m working on at the moment: |-|-|-||-|-|-||-|-|-| www.nerofondo.it |-|-|-||-|-|-||-|-|-|

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
If you're visiting Italy and want to experience the true magic of Rome, I can take you on unforgettable walkings — from exploring hidden art treasures and secret gardens, to savoring authentic Roman street food, tasting local wines in cozy enotecas, discovering vibrant open-air markets, and even watching a sunset from the best panoramic spots that only locals know. All while finding the best places to eat, drink, and live the Roman spirit — without breaking the bank.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: I’m into jazz, blues, and rock — totally addicted to Pink Floyd — but I keep an open mind for all genres. If a song sparks emotions, it doesn’t matter where it comes from. Movies: I’m currently studying professional filmmaking, so I’m diving deep into the greatest movie masterpieces of the past 50 years — sometimes watching as a passionate spectator, sometimes analyzing them through the eyes of a cinema student.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I stayed strong after discovering diving at the age of 13 — back when scuba diving was expensive and not accessible to everyone. Despite many telling me to give up, I kept studying and training, and in 2011, I achieved my goal of becoming a scuba diving instructor.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love cooking Italian food and pairing it with good wine. Over the past two years, I’ve taken several pizza-making courses in Naples, and I’m really proud of the results I'm achieving.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Privacy, a safe and welcoming space, great company for meaningful conversations, and a knowledgeable guide if you’re passionate about art.
