Overview
About Me
Hi, I'm Stefano, Italian, living in southern Portugal (Vilamoura, in the Algarve's famous "Golden Triangle") since 2021. I’ve travelled to 25 countries and lived in 6. I love freedom, nature, books, and meaningful human connections.
I'm a Taurus, independent, and a free thinker.
I live off the grid in many ways: no alarms, no fixed routines, and my phone is usually off (I only switch it on in emergencies and i don’t use WhatsApp, best decision ever).
I read over 50 books a year, study late at night, and enjoy quality films under a blanket or with a glass of wine.
My lifelong goal has always been the same: freedom, to travel, grow, learn, observe, disconnect, and reconnect with meaning.
I don't work for money, money works for me.
I’ve built a lifestyle where I’m completely free. When I’m not travelling, I spend time reading, learning, dancing bachata, walking on the beach, riding horses, or flying my drone across the cliffs.
I’m thoughtful, sometimes reserved, but honest, consistent, grounded.
People often say I’m “not a typical person” and I like it that way.
I’m not vaccinated, and I have my reasons.
I'm not for everyone... and not everyone is for me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I only use this platform when I sense a real opportunity for genuine human connection.
I enjoy meeting conscious, curious and grounded people — the kind of souls who seek real conversations, cultural exchange, nature, and discovering the essence of a place beyond the touristy surface.
But let’s be honest.
Now that I live in a beautiful and popular area, I’ve seen way too many girls using Couchsurfing just to get a free holiday, with zero interest in connecting, sharing, or contributing.
That’s not what I’m here for. That’s why I’ve become highly selective.
If you're just looking for a free bed in the Algarve,
maybe Netflix is a better match. 😌
My time, energy and home aren’t for everyone.
But if you’re authentic, kind and genuinely curious, we might share something meaningful, maybe even unforgettable.

I’ve met amazing people through this platform in the past, both while travelling and occasionally hosting.
Now that I live in Portugal full time, I’m open to hosting selected guests, those who bring something of their own: a story, a skill, a vibe, or just good presence.
I don’t host often, but when I do, it’s because something feels right.
My place isn’t a hostel and I’m not a 24/7 entertainer.
But I’m a good listener, and I love sharing moments of presence, silence, or real exchange and i shared all my time with you.
If we connect, we might...
- Walk along the beach or over the cliffs at sunset
- Share a glass of wine and a soulful conversation
- Talk about books, music, life lessons or business (economy, geopolitics, finance, etc.)
- Nice dinner together in my "lounge and relaxed place"
- Or just sit in silence and feel the moment unfold
And maybe, if the energy flows, we turn a simple evening into a story worth remembering. 🌙
I’m not for everyone and not everyone is for me.
But if you’re one of the few… maybe this could turn into something rare and beautiful. Who says. Live the life. Ste

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
If the people lives with intensity all moments in the life, all moments are amazing!
Stay alone in the middle of the forest for 6 days without any phone, and 2 times 10 days in the desert
Teach, Learn, Share
I can show you a very wonderful places in Algarve (the caribbean of the Europe).
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share my time, my energy, and my freedom — but only when there’s real connection, curiosity, and presence.
If we vibe, you’ll find:
- Meaningful conversations (about life, mindset, travel, or anything worth sharing)
- A peaceful place to relax, with a beautiful garden and swimming pool
- A taste of real Italian cuisine, cooked with love
- A bottle of excellent wine (yes, I have a personal cellar 😏)
- A proper hot shower, clean towels, and a comfortable sofa or even my bed (if I get tired of it, who knows 😂)
In this house, comfort and spontaneity go hand in hand.
- And maybe some bachata dancing together at sunset
And you?
What do you bring to the experience, besides a backpack?
