About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover the World, better if by bike!

ABOUT ME

I live in the Venice mainland, in the heart of the magnificent Veneto Region between the amazing Dolomites, the pleasant Garda Lake and the wonderful Prosecco Hills. Cozy places for a perfect holiday! :-)

Unfortunately, I also live in a country - dear old Italy - with lots of problems, with an obsolete mentality, where public opinion are attracted more from hot girls and football than the real troubles... :-(

Anyway....

I discovered the pleasure of traveling only short time ago, moving across Italy and then Europe practicing my favorite sport, cycling. I enjoyed the wonderful camping-life for some years, then I searched for more comfortable accomodations under a solid roof. But hotels, B&B, private rooms seems often anonymous, without personality and where it's difficult to live the place not as a tourist but as a local.

With CS I hope to find new friends in the places I visit, both if they can host me or not, to share travel experiences and discover new ways to living life! :-)

For the future, I'm planning a bike-trip across Europe in 2012... I hope CS could help me!
