About Me

I recently moved to Ferrara. After 5 years of a CS break, I am hosting again!
I’m still learning Italian… so forgive me that I don’t speak the language and I’m not much of a tour guide.

I’m a big time SCUBA diver and I want to dive the whole planet! (Well, the warmer parts mostly)

PHILOSOPHY: Under my roof, there is no judgement! You are welcome and be yourself! I host multiple groups of surfers sometimes, so acceptance of all types is necessary! :)
I do my best to keep an open mind and ask you do the same. I will always show you respect and caring, simply ask you do the same.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've hosted over 1000 people over the years and I have surfed a few locations...
Couchsurfing has always been a positive experience in my life and I have so many friends because of it!
I stay with my friends (and sometimes stranger's) all over the world, I have friends in a ton of different countries, so i'm pretty well linked to travel! Couchsurfed in China, New Zealand, Japan, Australia, England, Bali, Taiwan, and in the U.S.
