Hey everyone, my name is Leah Kenyan born Eritrean .I joined CS when I moved to Germany in 2018 (i have since gone back home) and the kindness I have experienced has been overwhelming (except for few unfortunate experiences). I never imagined strangers I meet in another continent would give me so much hope in humanity.

I recently moved to Florence for a short period of time on a program at the University and looking to best maximize my time here exploring the city. I was in Florence for a weekend a couple years ago but I am fortunate enough to full live the Florence experience.

I am looking to interact with locals and other travellers to explore Florence, Tuscany and the whole of Italy.

I have a lot empathy,I believe we genuinely need to live happier together. I love sharing about my culture and information on my continent, which has been horribly branded. Only if there is a genuine curiosity.

I am not the funniest person in the world but I am easy and joke a lot.I try to respond to everyone even when I am not able to stay with them or meet up ( I do get overwhelmed with keepingup with the technology.

When i am hosted, I am a reasonably clean and punctual human. I always make time to speak with my host even just for a few hours (I understand that people can be busy sometimes).I definitely write references to people who have been kind to me in one way or another and those who have not and don't appreciate when someone nags me write one. When I am comfortable around people I can't stop talking :) ,please say STOP!!! when that happens.

I will stop here because i am a talented overthinker and could write a whole book but before i do...i expect and give respect to people and i don't appreciate people insisting i drink alcohol (beer or wine) when i have said NO the first time. No reference no communication (I have no exceptions)

I acknowledge that some people use this platform for other reasons other than travel and cultural exchange purposes. If you are one of those people, please don't write because I write honest references.

BE A GOOD HUMAN and LOOKING FORWARD TO CROSSING PATHS...

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Meet ,share experiences and not sex (i will completely understand if you change your mind about hosting me at this point)

My career goal is in diplomacy ,coach-surfing pushes me out of my comfort zone which is greater training than attending classes.
