Hey! I’m Maria, a 25-year-old Italian slow-traveling through the world with open heart and hungry mind. I’m an adventurous soul with a social vibe: I love getting lost in local markets, chatting with strangers, and saying yes to anything that smells like a story (or good food). I never say no to a party—especially if there’s dancing involved—but I’m just as happy chilling on a couch, glass of wine in hand, and deep conversation rolling. Introvert on the outside, extrovert on the inside. Basically: I love people, real connections, and the magic of small things. I like to think of myself as a creative and passionate person. My main interests nowadays are philosophy, storytelling and rock n roll. Among others: any kind of sport, especially skiing, cycling, climbing, alpinism, bjj, surf, kite-wind-anytypeof-surf; exploring; yoga, meditation, mysticism; silence, quiet chaos, guitar, singing, songwriting, poetry, jam sessions, comedy, driving, horsedriving, dogs, people, trees, hammocks, the sun.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love traveling through the people who live in a place—not just seeing it, but feeling it. Couchsurfing is perfect for that: sharing, learning, laughing, exploring.
Music, Movies, and Books
Rock Rock Rock and more Rock. Then, anything else.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I crossed all the Amazon River by boat. It was long, slow, wild, and full of mosquitoes. Totally worth it.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach Italian, a few recipes and the art of “il dolce far niente”
What I Can Share With Hosts
I’m a pretty good cook: expect real Italian food, homemade sauces, and desserts straight out of grandma’s cookbook. I’m a clean, respectful guest who don’t need much—just a cozy corner and a good chat.
My Interests
Philosophy. Films. Music, cooking, books, indie films, trekking, photography, late-night conversations, and slow, soulful breakfasts,
