Francesco welcomes you!
Ciao, bello! I’m Francesco — an Italian researcher living between Italy and Türkiye, passionate about travel, cinema, culture, and art. When I’m not writing or analyzing films, you’ll probably find me watching films or TV series (some things never change, hahaha), cooking something tasty, exploring the city, or enjoying a good conversation over coffee... or a glass of wine (let’s be honest).
I share my life in Istanbul with a lovely cat named Piso — but let me tell you a secret: he runs the place. Together, we keep our home calm, cozy, open-minded, proudly queer, and welcoming — a place where people can relax, feel comfortable, and simply be themselves.
I’m naturally curious and social, and I love meeting people from different places and backgrounds. I also value independence and personal space, so whether you’re in the mood for some quiet time of your own or for a chat, a coffee, a drink, or a spontaneous adventure around the city, you’ll always find an easygoing atmosphere with me.
Traveling has taught me that some of the best memories come from unexpected encounters. Whether I’m exploring the world or welcoming someone in my place, I love sharing stories, cultures, laughter, and good energy along the way. I believe meaningful experiences make this big world feel a little smaller... and a lot friendlier.
Come as you are — just be kind, open-minded, and nice to the cat. And don’t forget: he has the final say anyway. 🐈⬛☕🍷🏳🌈 Vi aspettiamo. Ciaooooo! 👋
