Hi there! My name's Francesca. I'm about to finish my university studies in Architectural engineering. After graduation I would like to spend my life traveling around the world, because up to now I have traveled very little and I suffered for this. I love my island: sea, volcano Etna, landscape, architecture, culture, food, good weather, people but I love also learning about new cultures, new people and travel a lot. I am a simple person, humble, friendly, easy going and open minded.
Interested in Art
Interested in Design
Fluent in English
Learning English
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Until now I have used other apps to learn languages, learn about new countries and cultures but I think this is one of the best because you have the possibility to exchange something in a concrete way, especially if you're traveling. I think that couchsurfing is the best way to know more about the country or the city you are travelling to and have someone local share with you plenty of tips.
Music, Movies, and Books
MUSIC I love Rock and Indie music in general but also like different genres. My favourite band: queen, pink floyd, rhcp, muse, florence and machine, coldplay and many other singers/band. I love also italian music (not modern) and appreciate classic music. MOVIES I like deeply movies like Inception, Shutter Island,Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind,Into the wild, Danish girl and many others. I don't like horror movies. BOOKS Great Gatsby (Fitzgerald), 100 years of solitude (Marquez), China Study (Campbell), Le città invisibili (Calvino), Un indovino mi disse (Terzani) and others.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
See Dalai Lama and listen to his thoughts on life, religion and people.
What I Can Share With Hosts
