ABOUT ME (in my profile photo there is also Sofia, my girlfriend, usually we travel together).

I'm a Computer Science teacher, I don't want to pass the rest of my life 8h/day in front of a computer, so I find the good option to teach Computer Science at high school, a good way to use my degree and stay with people and not only with computers.

I'm also a City councilor of Venice (Italy) https://consiglio2020.comune.venezia.it/strutture/1/componenti/3/22

I like to go to events and discover new music and new bands. I really like street art, I love folk dances (french, occitanian, south-italian, irish, balkan ...) and I want to learn always more. I organize a lot of folk dance parties! I like to play guitar, also if I'm not a very good player.I love to write too.

PHILOSOPHY

Every moment, every emotion, every experience, make you grow!

MY OLD PROFILE (of some years ago) https://www.couchsurfing.com/users/3326942/profile/legacy

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Surfing and sometimes hosting.

Usually I don't put I can host on Couchsurfing, because you know I live near Venice and every year there are more than 25,000,000 turists who want to come in Venice.
I really don't have the time to answer all the requests, could be a full time (not payed) job :D

When I travel I want to travel and know people I wanna become a traveller and not a turist, I want to see how people live in the cities where I'll go and get in touch with locals :)
Travel is not only see monuments but also know the culture and the people of the place you visit!
