About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world! Right now I'm in Italy but I've been backpacking all over Europe :) When I move to Seattle in the fall I will be hosting travelers!
EDIT: I'm in Seattle now, with a big house with 2 awesome roommates :)

ABOUT ME

Hey I'm Nick and I think life's an adventure- on so many levels. The world is a beautiful chaotic and crazy place and I'm trying to take it all in, the ups and the downs and everything in between. I'm a chill guy and a good guest if that's what you're looking for in this description- or I try to be at least. I haven't couchsurfed specifically through this website yet but I've done it plenty by meeting people and staying with them later.

PHILOSOPHY

To each her own

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surf in Europe, host in Seattle

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met some very cool people (now good friends) on a bus from
Hamburg to Amsterdam and later stayed with them in their home in France. I've AirBnB'd extensively. I met a group of students studying abroad in Italy and later crashed with them in Perugia. I met Erdinç my current host at a party on some stairs in Florence and because of him was inspired to actually start a CouchSurfing account!
