Preferred Gender: Any
Max Surfers Per Night: 3

Shared Sleeping Surface: No
Shared Room: Yes

The guest will sleep on the couch.
In a the living room , in the same room where will sleep someone else as wel.









COMMUNICATION Surfer-Host:


If you confirm me that you come and I do not get a cancellation notice or any kind of
follow up, i WILL leave a NEGATIVE REFERRAL on your
profile. Many CSers are waiting for couches and you
are hurting their chances by asking for couch space
and not following up (I think that this behavior it is not respectful toward to your "possible" host neither)"






WHEN DO I ACCOMODATE:


I prefer to host in the week even if I am often busy (work and school) but I can accomodate normally (I can't promise you to show you around cause I don't know if I have time for it but just ask it!), in the weekend I go almost always somewere for CS meetings or things like this (thats mean that I don't have a couch available)

I DO ACCEPT (I even prefer it) LAST MINUTE COUCH REQUEST, Send me a couch surfing request, I can read emails from my mobile phone, normally I will answer within few hours...

I am an italian guy who lives since 2005 in Belgium.
I live here cause from this geographic position I can travel all countries around very easily! This is great!

I would love to make a traveler theater company!

I have TT passion, no , is not a car:

My main passion is Theater, I love to play, to watch good Theater and also to be director (I did already direct already something about cabaret)

The second passion is Travel!

I am a simple/complex person, I just try to adapt myself at the situation I am in.
I like Nature, I like "Equilibrium", respect for Animals (I share vegetarian ideals but I eat meat sometimes), I am Pacifist (no war, but I can fight for what I repute right)...

What do I hate:
Superficial People, people who does not think (it can seems funny but the are more than the ones who do think), Fashion , Moda, Shopping, Hunters, Squanderers,

My job?
look at this video:

CouchSurfing Experience



The first was in Bielefeld , great!! than in Berlin!! and then in Cologne... now I cant count it anymore... I am traveling almost every weekend with CS and I cant stop doing it!
I had super nice, quite nice, nice, almost nice, almost not nice, and no nice at all CS experiences. And, except the totally negative ones (which are also sometimes necessary) I think is important to HAVE A COMPARISON with other people, it doesn't matter whether sometimes we don't feel comfortable with someone else, I think this is the point: we have to learn to be "flexible" enough to open our thought as much as we can to get in the range on the persons next to us, and who is next to us should do the same (it doesn't work in one way! : that's the meaning of "open your door" to a surfer.

Interests

Theatre,Travel, Music, IT, Internet, Nightlife. I love to meet new people, to know things/traditions about other places/people..

Music, Movies, Books

Movies: Adventure, Comic. (instead of TV I prefer theatre on live!).

Music: Blues; Rock, Classic Rock; Soul; Rhythm & Blues;Ska, Ska-punk; Old Rock 'n roll/pop '50, '60, '70, '80; Jazz; Classic.

About music I am a bit (MUCH) selective, I really HATE ELECTRO, TECHNO, DISCO, most of modern POP (like Eros Ramazzotti) and all think like that.. than , if you are going to go out with me , remember, I WILL NEVER GO TO A DISCO WITH THAT KIND OF MUSIC! I get depressed from it. The place I like are disco-pubs where people can easily dance and talk with no agressive music.

Singers: Fabrizio De André, Lucio Battisti, Battiato, Tony Tammaro, Punk Monital, Queen,
Books: Adventure, historical.

This is one of the gorup I love:

Opinion on the CouchSurfing.org Project

This is a GREAT community, since I know it I cant stop meeting new people and all that is just wonderful!
My life is really changed since I am with this people, I am really learning how to live...

(of course this community does not give me just "extremely positive" experience, life is not made just by positive things, but I "appreciate" even the negative ones: like this there is more taste to live...

I met him a few times by now.
He loves to have fun (typical for Italians?) It might look like he's always joking, sometimes he's not and then he's up for a serious talk. I heard the same topics come up about the CS-organisation again.

Your home is so welcoming I felt so at ease with you there. I cannot wait to return to Antwerpen to visit you again and taste the delicious chocolate of Belgium...
Come to Montreal when I am there and I will show you a really good time. Happy travels, never change and keep smiling!

I saw Luca playing in a theatre in Antwerp. Afterwards we had a little drink together.
I was really amazed : an Italian guy playing theatre using the Dutch language ! Respect, man.
Moreover he's a great guy, always trying to help other people. I liked also the way we conversated : he can talk a lot but at the same time he's an attentive listener. I also appreciate very much his attempts to give the Antwerp people a more "southern" spirit :-). See you soon, Luca.

Luca is one of the very active CS members, especially in his "Belgian hometown" of Antwerp: his energy and enthusiasm in putting up events is quite amazing :-) !
To manage all that, balances the typical Italian craziness ;-) with some (Flemish???) sense of organisation... Sounds weird? Well, meet him and make your own jugdement :-) !
Thanks for the cool dinner!!

Luca is just a great CS host, waiting in his apartment to make you feel comfortable, having a list ready with the most important things to know about his flat and Antwerp (even explanations on how to make your bed ready for the night)
he invited me to a rehearsal of his theater group, cooked great dinners (we'll work on the popcorn ;) ) and was always ready for conversations.
Boredom never came up and I wish you the same hospitality on your upcoming journeys as you gave me.

It was my first couchsurfing experience on the European continent. He offered me upon arrival a self-cooked Italian spaghetti dish with 'Belgian' mussels and i.e. the first I ate this summer-season.
We had some interesting discussions about the making of Kefir on water-basis using a bacterial culture. Looked together on internet for the healthy descriptions and so on. Furthermore I had a very good time and met some of his sympathic friends.

Met in person CouchSurfing Friend,  

I've met Luca on several occasions and although our personalities are not really compatible I value the effort he puts into creating meetings in Antwerp. Luca is a person you like or don't like, there's no road in the middle but I'm convinced he means everything he does good.

Luca is a real Italian guy: expressive, charming, player, goodlooking, ... Slightly worried about the 10 sons and 10 daughters he's planning to have with me. In spite of this excessive desire to have children: very funny bloke
--> update, after a night of vampires, dancing and walking: he's :-D Good thing he lives in Antwerp too, so we can share more movies, dance & have gooood meetings!!

André Malraux said: “To judge is obviously not to understand. Because if one understood, one could no longer judge.”

And to understand Luca is actually not that difficult- he wants to have a lot of fun! The mannerism he implements for that is certainly specific and probably doesn’t suit everyone’s taste, but it is part of his individuality. And to get in touch with it is no way so bad, regardless whether one meets him as an attentive host or a lively guest. Lucone is a nice guy!

We are travellig around the north europe!! it's a really nice experience!!!
know Luca really good, we have been like living together for few months, and I know for sure he could not even try to take drugs (he is allergic even at smoke) or to be a danger for someone , it's ridicule what she said about him, I really cant bear it! I trust him and I just want to vouch him, misunderstanding can happen but to be true I dont believe much the words Eugenia wrote.

He is one of the best CS Surfer/Host I know, it's great to be with him , and I know the all story about Eugenia Carrara, I was talking with him on the phone before and after the things happened and I can vouch him for my life, he is a real gentleman and I just made great experience with him, Luca is maybe sometimes strange for the "normal" people, cause he his a special one, as the brother , but of course in a POSITIVE way and he would never do anything wrong to ANYONE! I can say it for sure

Luca has a great sence of humor and it great to hangout with. I was supposed to go there for a pyama party but as we were only with 3 people we went out in Antwerp and they introduced me to the antwerp nightlife.
Was great to meet and he is a great host.
I'll try to join next time as well and hope that more people get to experience hanging out with this guy as its absolutely worth it.

I enjoyed very much and it was like (party-)holidays for me to host them. You guys are welcome in my house..whenever...
