Hi 🌼 I'm Beatrice, i'm 33 years old, and i'm Italian. I spent almost a year in Canada, and now i'm in New Zealand for the second time with a whv that is running out 😢

⚠️ Just a quick note: Please remember that Couchsurfing is not a dating app. I love traveling, discovering new cultures, and meeting people from around the world, but I’m only looking for friendship and shared travel experiences⚠️

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Meet new people, listen their stories, discover new places and learn new things ❤️

Centres d'intérêt

🎬 Few years ago, I studied film at university, focusing on film history and screenwriting. I have a passion for old movies, B-movies, splatter, zombie, trash, and independent films. I especially love watching them in old cinemas. I also have a background in arts and painting from high school, although I’m not the best at drawing. That said, I love photography and everything related to the arts.

Music is another big part of my life. I enjoy punk, punk-rock, noise, lo-fi, psychedelic, rock, and folk, but since coming to New Zealand, I’ve also developed an appreciation for reggae. And i love to see live shows because sometimes you can touch/capture/feel the energy and is really a beautiful feeling. 🪄

In my free time, I enjoy reading and discovering new authors, exploring new cities, parks, coffee shops, and music venues and unusual places (thanks to Atlas Obscura). I also love browsing through op shops, flea markets, and yard sales to find quirky objects and unusual t-shirts. I’m passionate about trying new foods and drinks from different places 🍍
