ABOUT ME

We are from Como, Italy!
We just came back from Australia, where we stayed for a year working and travelling! And it has been amazing! It has been our first big travel and now it's hard to stop!
We really like to discover new cities and people all over the world. We love to cook (Valentina loves to bake and Claudio loves to cook pasta and pizza!). When we are in a new city we love to discover it by walking around and talking with locals.

PHILOSOPHY

What is essential is invisible to the eye.

Serendipity.

Smile without a reason why, smile as if you were a child.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We are not quite ready to host at the moment but we are more than happy to meet couchSurfers from all around the world and have a drink together or a meal! Or just show you around Como!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Amazing! We had the possibility to meet awesome people that showed us around their amazing cities or little towns. Meet people all around the world and listen to everyone's stories is such a good way to enrich your background.
