About Me

Grown up in a little city close to Bergamo, moved almost two years ago in the capital of Poland...quite a change!!

ABOUT ME

I am 29 years old guy from Italy, currently living in the beautiful city of Warsaw

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

During my studies I was able to travel in amazing places and to do many great experiences that I will always remember! I was teaching English to kids in Indonesia, volunteering in a school in Argentina, sleeping on a tent in a desert island, walking inside a vulcano, seeing beautiful ancient temples and much more!

I heard about Couchsurfing many years ago but I tried it thanks to my co-traveler only few years ago. And the experiences were so good that I decided I would rely on it as much as possible.
When I travel I always try to mix with the local people and lifestyle - and try to avoid the most touristic things, unless they are unique and worthy - because I prefer to go back home with experiences rather then only fridge magnets (but they are cool, I admit it XD).

And I discovered that Couchsurfing is the best way to achieve this, by getting to know many different people and sharing our stories and experiences.
I like to talk a lot, so you are warned! XD

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked on the edge of an active volcano and heard it rumble and explode

Survived the crazy traffic of Indonesia while riding a motorbike

Took a lift on a little motorbike with my co-traveler; it's crazy because we were the driver, two passengers and two backpacks on a little motorbike, coming down a mountain! Only in Asia XD
