CURRENT MISSION

Travel around the world. Again.

ABOUT ME

I'm an italian guy, who loved space and so decided to spent some time studying aerospace engineering and then some time working in the aerospace industries.
Well, in 2013 I decided to take a break and travel around the world. And I did it.
After 11 months I came back to Italy, missing the world and hungry to start traveling again. :-) But, well... I founded a Start up and I'm a little busy here right now!

PHILOSOPHY

I am still developing a certain Weltanschuung.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For one year, in 2014/2015 I organized the Weekly Meeting in Lecce, Italy, (52 consecutive events!) where CSers from all Salento and all over the world meet every Friday to share a drink and a lot of stories. I had to stop because of lack of time, but I am still quite active in the CS community in Lecce.

I like to meet people and I believe couchsurfing is a great way to meet local people, spend nice time and go around amazing places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've always been an informal couchsurfer and couch host for friends coming to visit me.
While traveling around the world in 2013/204, I took part in tens of CS meeting all around North and South America and Asia. I also surfed in Japan and South Corea.
