ABOUT ME

I am a 21 year old student currently living in Florence to study the language and the architecture. Naturally, I also wish to meet people. I am a nice person, respectful, generally agreeable. My friends find me humorous and entertaining, if we do meet I hope I can show you the same.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to this, so my answer is "not much." Though I hope to host a few times and find somewhere nice to stay on my adventure through Europe in this next year.

However, our school is on break from Oct 22 to Nov 1 and I will not be able to host during these dates as I will be traveling. Mi dispiace!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met a few fellow couchsurfers. Found them enjoyable.
I hosted for the first time this month (10/2010) and I had a good time with them. Continues to be a posititive experience.
