Meet Ezio
Creative, Open minded, Helpful
I used to be a couchsurfer for about 10 years, hosting tens of people from all over the world for free. I'm used to consider money less important than the human experience.
On a typical day...
I have a very open house. My house is your house.
When I host guests...
I’m helpful and hands on. I can show them where to go and help them get there.

Are you an artist? Or an ecologist? Or a couchsurfer? If yes, please write me a SHORT PRESENTATION: your art, your activism or just what we have in common. If you read my rules you'll get some details about me :)
No presentation? No hosting!
I offer from time to time a SOFA-BED IN THE LIVING ROOM for a really small price to specific target of people.
The sofa-bed is in the living room, which has a kitchen corner as well. If you sleep of course I won't use the kitchen, but I'll need to cross the room to get to the toilet.
The flat is 55 square meters at the 4th floor of a building faced a very quiet street, just behind the big Via Prenestina, where buses and trams bring you to Termini station, to Coliseum and to the city center.
The apartment is spacious, bright, perfectly renovated and well furnished.
It has one bedroom (where I sleep) and a living room with the comfortable double sofa-bed.
The bathroom has both shower and bathtub.

About the Area
PIGNETO
It's a kind of bohemian village in the city and one of the best alternative places to visit nowadays in Roma: no monuments (they are nearby, anyway), but plenty of nice clubs, wine bars, little tavernas, street markets, tiny cineclubs and people in the streets h24.
LONELY PLANET'S OPINION:
"This isn't the Rome that most visitors usually see. It's la dolce vita, 2015-style. Here, in Pigneto, traditionally a poor working-class neighbourhood full of higgledy-piggeldy, 19th-century low-rise buildings, the alternative has become the mainstream and graffiti-covered shops are fast turning into off-beat boutiques. Its artery is Via del Pigneto, a partially pedestrianised street bisected by the gritty cityscape of the railway tracks. It's packed out in the day by a local food and clothes market, and by an eclectic collection of Rome's bohemians in the evenings. It's only in the last few years that Pigneto has become the Roman answer to London's Shoreditch, with arty bookshop-cafés and nightlife that sees the whole street turn into a nightly party. In a neighbourhood pizzeria, hard-as-nails pizza makers banter with the late-night crowd. Students talk earnestly at spindly tables, groups of friends share beers on doorsteps. Everyone's wearing black. They're artists, intellectuals, communists and poseurs, and sometimes all the above."

House Rules
Everybody is welcome and free to choose his own lifestyle, but I'm happier when my guests show me a bit of care for our planet or have something in common with me :) By the way...
I AM: a journalist, a cinema director, an environmental activist.
I LIKE: dancing, ecology, cooking, veggie food, playing guitar, traveling in my camper-van, hot springs, overcoming usual boundaries, filming, hiking, economical de-growth, the moment in which the inspiration comes.
I DISLIKE: single use plastic, junk food, advertising, TV, shopping centers, videogames.
