CURRENT MISSION 🌎🌏🌍 see the world and be happy!!

Autumn 2024, I went to France in Montpellier for 3 months with the idea to learn French and live in a French town and it was an awesome experience with amazing people I met there (mostly Latinos as always ehehe ).
Now in 2025 I'll be in Australia to use my only and last year of the Working holiday visa chance to see that far corner of the world.

Usually I’m in Mexico and Guatemala where I have done a Van as a motor home and where I sell paintings :) you can check or even buy a painting on

I also teach Italian online for 3 years, I'm on several platforms but if you want to have classes you can text me here.

Before that I have done a big hitchhiking and backpacking trip alone of 3 years along all of the American continent crossing 27 countries almost all made by hitchhiking 😎🎒
I did more or less 100.000km taking 723 rides (now 808) including a sailboat ⛵️ or a police car 🚔 crossing mountains valley deserts glaciers ..camping with my tent or hammock everywhere !!!

I received thousands of help and love and i hope to give it back to other travelers that need it ...

ABOUT ME
I'm an Italian always joyful and easygoing. I was an engineer but followed my true emotions and I quit my job in searching for a simple happy life ...I find myself emotional, I love meeting people, I don't like wearing shirts and being formal, I love sports, I like cooking and I like art. Moreover, I love sharing experiences and having cultural exchanges also in order to see other points of view. I speak Italian English Spanish and Portuguese (I'm on the way to learn French as well) and I truly love America Latina; probably in my past life I'd been a Latin too eheheh :))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

traveling and sharing experiences enrich our souls in this selfish World.

Interests

sport swimming football (Juventus) skiing running traveling meteorology Latin America

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't have a favorite music style: if I like a song its genre doesn't matter ...

books:
"Las venas abiertas de América latina" - Eduardo Galeano
"Venuto al mondo" (come to the World) - Margaret Mazzantini.

I usually read in Spanish and Portuguese because of I love these languages

Movies..mmm I actually don't have a favorite one. I don't like horror (not because they scare me) and the ones where there are just guns and shootings
