CURRENT MISSION

to learn as much as possible, from people, from places, from situations

ABOUT ME

I like to move, I can't stand still.
I love nature, and any natural landscape, but above all mountains.
I'm open-minded, in the beginning a little shy, but then very friendly.
I like to try new things and new experiences, and I like challenges!
INFP personality type, if you're into the Myers-Briggs - I am!!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to meet Csurfers who visited Genova, my home town, to show my wonderful city and I meet CSurfers when I am abroad

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Before I joined CS, I was hosted by a great Polish couchsurfer and his family. I learnt a lot from that experience, both from the cultural and the human point of view.
I met a lot of CSurfers when I lived in Moscow (who saved me from loneliness ;p thanks everybody) where this community is very active - congratulations! There I learnt a lot about CS spirit and I like it more and more.
I've met a lot of wonderful humans through CS, with some of them we're still in touch, some have become Friends (if I had to find just a few words to describe what they all have in common, I'd say wise, warm, deep, alive), and we try to meet every few years somewhere in the world, despite the distance.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

One of the most cathartic thing I've ever done was paragliding, while one of the best things I've seen was a waterfall in Myrdal (Norway).
Feeling and sharing!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I could teach you only sth about Italian culture and literature, skiing and swimming. I'm ready to learn anything, especially from people who are very different from me, about their habits, mentality, vision of life. I would like to learn a bit of every language and the history and situation of every country. I prefer the verb to share: opinions about intercultural experiences, about places visited, about feelings...and of course about our hobbies!
