About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Sorry I can't host anyone for the moment; I had a knee surgery and it's difficult to plan fun things.

ABOUT ME
I'm Italian, and I grew up between Sicily and Illinois. Now I live in Puerto Rico and I love it!
I love to travel and to meet people. I am spontaneous, adventurous and easy going but at the same time organized and neat.

PHILOSOPHY
I've learned that:
"non tutto il male viene per nuocere"
It's important to make decisions based on love (love for learning, for doing what you love to do, and especially because you love your self)
and ...there's a solution for everything! It's useless to sweat over things we don't have control over.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've had only positive experiences, both hosting and being hosted.
It's priceless to see the city or show the city through the eyes of a resident; and making connections with people.
I have met great people, and I can call some of them friends and even family :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This is difficult....it's all subjective, no?
I've visited ancient ruins, done some adrenaline activities, but so far, I think that moving to PR just for the sake of it has been the most rewarding thing I've done for myself.

Teach, Learn, Share

Languages , cousine, life experiences ...

What I Can Share with Hosts

As a host, showing them a good time in PR as much as possible.
As a guest, I'll be neat and respectful, and will cook for you too if time permits.

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, France, Germany, Honduras, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, Puerto Rico, Spain, United Kingdom, United States, Vatican City State
