Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been in Italy in the end of September, early October. The travel was nice. Italy is green and beatiful. Grazia was our host in Rome, where we stayed in her house, in a very nice room where we could ear the birds singing early in the morning, when we rose up to go visit Rome. Her house is in the field far from the noise and polution of the big city.
Grazia was a wounderful host, in fact I cant imagine a better host, we had a very nice pasta with her and her family. She is very giving and trustworthy. Marco, her husband was very gentle to take us every morning to the train station by car. And Andrea, her son, is a very funny kid. I hope someday we will comeback to Rome and visit them again.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: I like european movies that make your head work, but not too boring, but sometimes a good action movie is nice to decompress.
Music: A wide range, from Classical to Electronica, Jazz and Rock, if it is good it's ok.
Books: Greek ant Latin literature are the cradle of european civilization and nowdays Romance and Poetry from everywhere in the globe.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A storm in the Aegean sea in Greece. A beatiful sunset in Odesseixe, Portugal. A walk in the Amsterdam channels in spring where the coulours are amazing. Letting myself fall asleep catching the sun in Tavira, Algarve.
The rosy sky embracing Florence on a beautiful sunset at Piazzale Michelangelo.
