I'm a civil engineer and a software test automation engineer with a passion for listening to people's stories. My curiosity knows no bounds when it comes to exploring new cultures, connecting with diverse individuals, and discovering unfamiliar cities. I pride myself on being easygoing and approachable, making it effortless to strike up a conversation and share experiences with fellow travelers and new friends.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing, for me, is not just a means to find a place to stay; it's an opportunity to connect with fellow travelers and locals, exchange stories, and build meaningful connections. I value the idea of cultural exchange and believe that it enriches both the traveler and the host.

Interessi

I have a deep appreciation for long-distance cycling as it offers a unique opportunity to connect with people from various backgrounds, making every journey a memorable experience. Similarly, hitchhiking is another passion of mine, allowing me to meet intriguing individuals and share incredible stories along the way.
