I have been a CS member since 2005 and a CS Ambassador since 2007. I used to surf as much as I hosted but I now travel for business and I enjoy hosting other travelers. AS A HOST: My house is located in an enchanting yet fairly remote Tuscan mountain where I enjoy nature, silence and a great view. I own a company which I run from my home studio which means I can be very busy with work but also organize my spare time freely. For this reason I generally enjoy sharing my time with guests over a meal or a glass of Tuscan wine. If work and time allow it I won't mind sightseeing around. If you are happy with being independent when outside my house and sharing time only when you are back, that's ok too.
