I am a trip lover. I have spent last 2 years mostly abroad to both study and enjoy new cultures. I am an easy going person who loves spending time with people to learn and share. Foreign languages are one of my main interest, in addition to science and sport.

Update: I am now living in Oxford and felt sad about deleting the description I wrote 2 years ago.
I am now living in Oxford, trying to survive while doing a DPhil in Chemical Biology. Science is still my passion, but climbing it's creepin' in, so I actually spend most of my time either in a lab, in a gym or in a crag around the UK.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To experience a new way of travelling, going out from my comfort zone and meet new friends.

Interests

Ask me to go somewhere or to try some new sport, I won't say no. Can't stand wasting time in my comfort zone.

Trying to live an eco-friendly life as much as I can, interested in whatever might be useful to save our wonderful planet 🌎

Bouldering and climbing are my new obsession. 🧗

Music, Movies, and Books

I always have a good book with me, no matter if about science or if it is a novel, too passionate about reading to choose what I love the most.
Favorite book: 1984-Orwell

I do love stand-up comedy, Ricky Gervais is my favorite comedian! I do love movies as well, usually boring ones though 🙃
Favorite movie: Into the wild (quite common I guess)

Rock is usually the kind of music I use to hear, but I am really open to everything that sounds good. At the moment my favorite group is "The National" 🥰
Other groups: Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Brunori sas, Fabrizio De André, Placebo, Franz Ferdinand

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming in the Artic Ocean while enjoying the northern lights, one of my best and breathtaking experiences. Also walking bare feet on the snow to find my cottage was quite interesting :)
Driving a snowmobile on a frozen lake crossing the boards of Finland, Sweden and Norway.
Biking on the snow without snow wheels (didn't work for too long 😂)

Abseiling from a coast in Swanage with no knowledge on how to do it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can speak fluently and teach some languages and would also love sharing my yoga knowledge, spending time cooking vegan food or simply talking :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

My friendship, funny stories and boring science based discussion :)
