I’m half Spanish 🇪🇸 half Italian 🇮🇹 and was born in London 🇬🇧 Growing up I lived in several different places around Spain and England. Then a couple of years ago I needed a fresh start and decided to move to Italy 🌞 My father’s family comes from Genova so I chose the city as my new home 🏡

Coming from a multicultural background I’ve always loved meeting people from all round the world and learning about different cultures 🌎 I’m what they call a ‘third-culture kid’ 😎 I adore travelling, having new experiences and living life to the full! I especially love backpacking and solo travelling ✌️

I grew up trilingual in English, Spanish, and Italian, and can speak a couple of other languages (albeit not as fluently). I love learning new words in other languages, discovering the connection between different languages, and finding out the etymology of random words.

I really enjoy studying 🤓 I have a degree in Comparative Literature and Film Studies, which are still two of my greatest passions. After working in London for a couple of years I decided that I wanted to be a Human Rights (or Animal Rights) Lawyer so I went back to university and did a degree in Law and then a Master’s Degree in International Law and Human Rights.

I’m a very friendly, open, kind, and welcoming person 🤗 I’m empathetic and always try to make other people feel happy and at ease. I’ve often been called bubbly and enthusiastic 🤩 I love chatting to people and making new friends.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I’d love to meet people from all round the world, learn about their culture, discover new words in their language, and exchange stories about our lives and the places we’ve travelled to 🧳

Algo increíble que he hecho

I took a gap year when I was 18 and went to India on my own to volunteer for 3 months. It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I can show you around Genova, a beautiful city which I consider an absolute hidden gem 💎 I can share with you my passions and interests, teach you new words in various languages, and take you out for a famous Italian aperitivo (probably my favourite pastime since I moved to Genova)🍹
