My name is Francesco and i have recently graduated in Oriental Languages.
Now i decided to take a gap year and to dedicate some time to me and to travellings.
So me and Francesca, my girlfriend (the one in the pictures), are looking forward to go around, meet new people and create new contacts. We use to travel together.
Since we plan to live abroad, this year it's also supposed to be a test year that might allow us to know some new cities and countries in which we could live.

I use to play guitar since i was kid, and now performing live in pubs is my Hobby/Job. In those occasions i usully sing and play guitar in acustic or unplugged fashion.
So of course i like music.
I play Judo and Salsa dancing (i could teach you something if you like!)
But one of the things i like the most is LARP and role playing games (i like theatre-related things and storytelling)

Something else really important to me is camping and nature: my dream is to live in a wooden cottage surrounded by a wild nordic forest.
'Till my dream come true i use to enjoy nature while reading books on the grass or having campings in the mountains near Rome with beer, bonfires and friends.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I can offer my smiles and positive vibes, first of all: i like to bring laughters and happiness in my path.

I would gladly tell the stories about my adventurous trips and share my knowledeges.

Furthermore, even though it's difficult for me to host travellers in my house, i would make a Rome Tour guide for the people who are willing to host me during my roaming :)
