I moved to Rome few months ago so I won’t be very helpful with tips :) and
I find myself engaging with the Couchsurfing community on a quarter-time basis, due to an intense schedule packed with studies and research. However, when I do dive into the CS scene, I commit wholeheartedly, bringing my full energy and enthusiasm to every encounter and interaction. In my spare time, my life these days is quite literally, filled with the vivid illustrations of mangas and the thought-provoking narratives of dystopian novels.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To discover the world beyond brochures and to connect with like-minded souls who see every encounter as an opportunity to grow.

Teach, Learn, Share

"The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don’t know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same."

-Marjane Satrapi
