Carnival is fully booked, with family and long time friends.

ABOUT ME

I have spent 15 years trying to work myself out and I realized long ago that is much more fun to let other people do it (right or wrong).

I would like a personalised request (I guess most people will agree on this) rather than a copy-paste, that will prove that you might have paid a bit of interest reading the profile as I have been getting requests where people do not even bother to find out about my real name, will appreciate if you start your request with a word such as Pliny the Elder (ask me who he was if interested) in order to make yourself stand out from the crowd.

I am currently living with my daughter so she might have to give the thumbs up to your request too.

I have been rather idle during the last couple of years due to pandemic and my personal circumstances, but I am willing to go out there and do explore again.

PHILOSOPHY

You can ask me in person (if interested).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As I always say I do everything the best I know and/or the best I can.
Try to show around when I can and give tips and hints about places to visit,talk about any topic that guests might bring up.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Far too many and far too diverse but all of them bring me back good memories

Interests

Too many, but since I saw Jaws at the age of 5 , sharks in general and Great White Sharks in particular have allways been at the top of the list.

Music, Movies, and Books

It is a very extensive field but as a sample I will start with the following.

Movie: Cinema Paradiso, Mediterraneo, La vita e Bella.
Music: Many Sorts, mostly Rock.
Book: The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Whale Sharks, and white tip reef-sharks in Wetern Australia got to be one of the most amazing things that I have ever experienced.

Teach, Learn, Share

Something that I have learned and that I am willing to share with everybody it is the fact that most of the people that I have met spend more time pretending to be happy than being happy

What I Can Share with Hosts

Tidy and cozy place, as a general rule 3-4 days seems to be maximum stay, but of cours it all depends, normally one night stay gives me the awkward impression of being used like a b&b place (of course there are exceptions to the rule).
Life experiences based on my own accounts.
