ABOUT ME

I´m a 21 year old student who really loves to travel and heard about this great site studying abroad in Italy. I am incredibly fascinated by meeting new people, and heard about this opportunity from a fellow traveler.
As for my personality, I am a very relaxed and easy going person along the lines of a ¨Neo'Hippie¨ an Italian once told me. As he described it, ¨I´m relaxed, easy to get along with, in tune and appreciate nature, enjoy alternative life styles, but am more clean and in tune with the current society.¨
I don´t have a car because I love riding my bike when ever I can. I am struggling to define my art seeing that I´m still studying Graphic Design in school. I love to cook with anyone at anytime, especially new and exciting ethnic foods!
I´m not much into partying or going out to the bars, but I´m more than happy to take a beer to the park and have stimulating conversation with a group.

PHILOSOPHY

No Expectations. I feel that people expect to much out of where they go, who they meet, what they are doing, and everything in the world. Living with little or no expectations makes everything so much more exciting and fulfilling in life that I enjoy it all the time!
Living in harmony with the natural flow of life. It feels like resisting natural instincts, feelings, and nature in general wears me down. Letting life flow along the way it should is how I like it.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As for now I´m a new member and am abroad. I would like to make new friends around Italy and Europe so that when I get home they can recommend me as a good person to spend time with.

Music, Movies, and Books

In terms of music I generally like quirky fun experimental things along the lines of Devotchka, Tilly and the Wall, Matson Jones, and the Postal Service. I would also have to say half of the music I listen to is classical. Anything from Vivaldi to Mozart and so on.

Movies are hard because the move in and out of my brain so readily. I´d have to say Everything Is Illuminated tops the charts momentarily.

I work at a library currently, and have in the past too. So books tend to come in all shapes and sized when I read them. For a general theme I enjoy life reflection books like ¨The Phantom Tollbooth¨ ¨The Alchemist¨ or any of the classics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Driven down the hill to the Amalfi Coast in Italy and looked back up in amazement.
