Hi, everybody! I am Gioia, what in Italian means Joy, but my family calls me Melinda (yes… like the apple brand-mark) because of a long story I will tell you one day if I have the pleasure to meet you eventually. I am not sure about how to introduce myself, also because I am a beginner in social networks, I don´t even have a Facebook.
The word most describe myself I think is genuine. I try every day to be the most authentic version of myself and that can show to others a wrong impression. Sincerely may confuse people who are not used to it. I appreciate naturalness more than anything, it doesn´t matter if we are different. By contrary, I can't wait to learn new ways of thinking and living life.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

音乐、电影和书籍

Art, in general, is the fuel of my life and I am unable to choose a favorite. I can read anything and be extremely happy. So few books I can mention between the among I like it are Pride and Prejudice, Caballo de Fuego, Le Petit Prince, La solitudine dei numeri primi, Harry Potter (I am Gryffindor-Ravenclaw).
I like all music genres, without exception. And, for now, my favorite movies are Spirited away, Spirit and Only lovers left alive.
