About Me

I’m a freelance strategy consultant with a curious mind and a restless love for new experiences. Most of my travels are about the people I meet along the way — the conversations that stretch late into the night, the spontaneous walks that turn into stories.

I’m an outdoor person at heart — happiest when hiking, exploring new places, or chasing a bit of adventure. But I also appreciate calm spaces, slow mornings, and cooking something good to share over a glass of red wine.

People usually describe me as funny, easy to be around, and naturally adaptable. I value other people’s space and rhythm, but I also enjoy genuine connection when it happens — the kind that doesn’t need effort.

At the moment, I’m working toward building my own startup, learning everything I can from the world and the people I cross paths with. Every trip is part of that journey — collecting perspectives, ideas, and stories that shape what’s next.

PHILOSOPHY
Carpe diem and stay foolish!
We are what we do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to surf more and then host others when I get my own place.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

No so much experience but thanks to it I've met amazing people, different but with a warm heart and vibes. I think the spirit of CS is to sharing memorable moments together.

Interests

In my free time I'm never still: reading, sports, music,
getting to know other people and talking and enjoy with them about every topic and everywhere.
If I will find some time I would like learn to play piano, practice extreme sports and to attend theatre lectures, learn other languages, travelling and exploring more with a van perhaps. Happy to share a drink/coffee/meal with everyone too.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like watching action, western, thrillers, funny tv series commedies.
I'm very curious and so I read every kind of thing, culture, history, art, science, tech, foodies, startups, entrepreneurship, and business mainly.
My taste of music changes according to my mood but I like classical, old music, alternative rock, chilling music.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to explore other stunning people experiences and share mine.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can show you the city around, the docks, the Beatles museum, the gallery, the anglican cathedral (located only 5 far-minutes walk from home) if I ve got some spare time or you can do it yourself if can't or you prefer to. I also will tell you where to go if you've to buy any specific food/item or you do need any specific shop.

I love cooking and eating any Italian and/or any healthy food so I can prepare for the both of us if we decide to eat any meal together.
You can get a cup of tea whenever you want to BUT YOU'RE EXPECTED to buy your own food/drinks - unless you've been told differently or we are going to share any cost for a jointly lunch/dinner.

I can offer you a spare bed or a comfortable sofa (I don't have any spare shit though), a towel, use of the bathrooms (please USE your own care products), kitchen and a WiFi connection. It might be that I will ask you to leave home with me if I need to go somewhere but you can join me when possible or you can just enjoy the town by yourself.

Countries I’ve Lived In

England, Italy, Poland, Slovakia
