My life goal is to live a story worth sharing, and for me traveling is the best way to gain stories and learn from others' stories as well. One day I would like to write a novel, but the only way you can write something worth reading is to experience real life and real people.

For me, it's not enough to go to a city, just see the most touristy sites, and then leave. I like to completely experience a country or city. To immerse myself in it. To learn about the history and the culture. To sit for hours in a cafe people watching as everyone strolls by.

So, for any of the hosts I encounter, nice to meet you in advance, and I can't wait to learn more about your life and city. :)

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

In Peru, I hiked up and down Colca Canyon (one of the world's deepest canyons).

In Taiwan, I took my first ever solo trip, exploring Mt Yangmingshan, Guandu Temple, sunset at Danshui Port, and Shilin Night Market in a one day epic trip.

In Thailand, I participated in the world's largest waterfight during the Thai New Year celebration called Songkran.

In Lebanon, I got to visit and volunteer with a Syrian refugee camp, hearing the refugee's stories about the war.

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

I love to write, and I love to draw comics and illustrations. If hosts are interested, I would be more than happy to share some of the pieces I have created, and maybe even take requests for an art piece they wish, in return for hosting me.
