I’m Ale, living in Berlin since 2018. I see myself as a rather honest and straightforward person, realistic, non-dogmatic, easy-going. I really like thinking and talking about social/personal/emotional topics, and connecting with people while sharing life stories and thoughts. And I also much appreciate humor!;)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

In the past, while I was still living in Montecchio Precalcino with my mother and younger brother, my mother had a Couchsurfing profile and we hosted several people from all over the world for short (two or three days) and long (some weeks) periods. This gave me many nice memories, and so I started using Couchsurfing myself during my university years.

Algo increíble que he hecho

While hiking in Ladakh I unintentionally ended up in a piece of land owned by dozens of stray dogs. I only realized the gravity of the situation when in the middle of this piece of land, when all these dogs started barking at me aggressively. The amazing thing is that I managed to get out of that situation without getting hurt (and without hurting any dog in the process).
