I’m Costanza, a 31-year-old Italian anthropologist and language teacher, currently based in Montreal, Quebec.

I like to think of myself as both shy and outgoing. It may take me a little while to open up, but once I do, I’m generous and loyal. I love cats and good TV shows—and I can happily yap about both for hours ;)

I haven’t used this website since 2016, but I'm happy to start again as I explore Canada.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy traveling in a spirit of solidarity and genuine cultural exchange. I love meeting new people and challenging myself!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've tried kayaking recently and loved it!

Teach, Learn, Share

Since I love learning languages, I’ve become fluent in English, Portuguese, and French. I’d be happy to share a bit of those with you—along with my mother tongue, Italian, of course.

I also have a big collection of films on my hard drive and would love to share them and watch together in good company.

When it comes to cooking… I’m a terrible cook—so don’t expect much, even if I am Italian!

I love animals, and I’d be more than happy to help hosts with their pets.

What I Can Share with Hosts
