Ciao! My name is Pietro but I'm very allergic to "t" so I prefer you to call me Piero:)
I grew up in a wonderful Italian city, Salerno, a little place in between mountains and sea.

I work on artificial intelligence for medicine (probably sounds cooler than it is).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Here to enjoy the most important resource in the world... PEOPLE!

I adore listening to music. I also play guitar in a band. I love watching movies and travelling around, meeting new people and discovering new places. Oh, and I'm a coffee addict.
