Hello there, I'm Davide. Nice to meet you :)

I’m an Italian film director on a journey to travel overland from Italy to China.

I’m fascinated by people, culture, and those small, unplanned moments that make a journey unforgettable. I love deep talks, simple food, and the kind of encounters that turn into stories worth telling.

If we’re in the same city, let’s explore together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you the art of storytelling, helping you master the ability to captivate and engage audiences through compelling narratives that leave a lasting impact.

I also got very interested in mindfulness and meditation, it really helps in reaching your own inner peace.

How to make a good carbonara is also another skill I can share.
