My nam's Luca, I'm 33, I'm Italian and I'm living in Cork since July 2013. My hometown is located in southern Italy but when I was 19 I moved to Florence. I lived there for almost 8 years studying and working. After different professional experiences around the Europe I came here just with the purpose to visit my sister. In the meantime I applied for a job and, well, I got it! I'm still working in the same company and so far so good!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I love this way to join new people, new cultures and different points of view. In the last years, i've been traveling and doing couchsurfing around the Europe enough to say that It is one of the best insights of the 21st century. The world is now smaller than before!
