CURRENT MISSION 🌎🌏🌍 see the world and be happy!!

I go to France next to Montpellier for 2/3 months (october - dicember) to live and do whatever i Can find to do extra money. The idea is only to learn French and live in a French town

Usually I’m in Mexico and Guatemala where I have done a Van as a motor home and where I can sell paintings :) you can check or even buy a painting on
www.lucancaburdraws.com
I also teach Italian online

Before that I have done a big hitchhiking and backpacking trip alone of 3 years along all the American continent crossing 27 countries almost all made by hitchhiking 😎🎒
I did more or less 100.000km taking 723 rides (now 808) including a sailboat ⛵️ or a police car 🚔 ejjeje crossing mountains valley deserts glaciers ..camping with my tent or hammock everywhere !!!

I received thousand of help and love and i hope to give it back to other travelers that need it ...

ABOUT ME
I'm an Italian always joyful and easygoing. I was an engineer but followed my true emotions and I quit my job in searching of simple happy life ...I find myself emotional, I love meeting people, I don't like wearing shirts and being formal, I love sport, I like cooking and I like art. More over I love sharing experiences and having cultural exchanges also in order to see other points of view. I speak Italian English Spanish and Portuguese (I'm on the way to learn French as well) and I truly love America Latina; probably in my past life I'd been a Latin too eheheh :))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

traveling and sharing experiences enrich our souls in this selfish World.

Interests

sport football (Juventus) skiing running traveling meteorology Latin America

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't have a favorite music style: if I like a song its genre doesn't matter ...

books:
"Las venas abiertas de América latina" - Eduardo Galeano
"Venuto al mondo" (come to the World) - Margaret Mazzantini.

I usually read in Spanish and Portuguese because of I love these languages

Movies..mmm I actually don't have a favorite one. I don't like horror (not because they scare me) and the ones where there are just guns and shootings
