Hi, I'm Giacomo!
I'm currently a Computer Science student at Padua University.

When I'm not studying or programming, I love hiking on the mountains, ride my bike as far as I can, climbing and lots of other stuff you can check right below :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hope to get to know new people while travelling. I think one's enjoys a new place a lot more when interacting directly with some local folks.

Looking forward to host some travellers when I'll move on my own!

Interests

I love to hike in the mountains on my own and sometimes I get to climb with some friends. I ride my bike almost every week through the hills and the Alps near my home. In winter I usually go skiing and snowboarding in the Dolomites.

I'm also passionate about travelling and photography.
As a Computer Science student, I love programming and solving problem. I try to stay up to date with the latest technology and discoveries although is very difficult these days!

Having some 420 fun also from time to time :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm very passionate about music and I always love to discover new artists and melodies.

I'm open to every kind of genres. My favourites music ranges from Rap, Hip-Hop, Jazz, Experimental Hip-Hop to Electronic, Deep House, Trance, Ambient and Melodic Hardcore, Post-Hardcore and even a bit of Alternative/Indie Rock.

I always love to know what kind of music people listen to and get to know new stuff. I used to play bass guitar in a couple of a bands and I occasionally play some piano.

I'm also very passionate about films. Although I'm no expert, I enjoy watching as many movies I can. I'm a fan of every Tarantino film and I enjoy watching documentaries a lot. My favourite independent film is Whiplash, my favourite epic-trilogy is TLOTR.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

Looking forward to improve my spoken English and listening to people's experiences!

I can teach you some programming and computer stuff, but I think you'll get bored easily :)
