About Me

Been on couchsurfing for a longtime, both as a guest, and especially as a host. Hospitality is a key to a meaningful life, but not much into random tourists and people who are not curious. Artists, socially engaged, curious people and geeks most welcome at my place. If you are into video, art, music, travel, then I'm the right host for you.
This is a channel I curate: www.termini.tv/en

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Guys, only one thing: please, contribute. Buy some groceries, clean some dishes, I mean, BE HELPFUL, and you'll be more than welcome.
