Hi! I’m Lilli and I’m a Dutch-Italian living in Utrecht. I grew up in Rome and moved here to study. I’m doing comparative philosophy in Leiden, so I commute between the two cities. I also lived in Vancouver for a semester before moving here :)
I love to spend time in nature, whether that’s simply a walk in a park or a hike in the mountains. But I also really enjoy my time at home with my cat, good food, a good book/series and deep conversations :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Would love to turn my travels into a more mindful experience: not simply traveling to get a place crossed out of a bucket list but also to build more of a connection and understanding to the place. And what better way to do that than meeting new people! Building new connections and getting in touch with different perspectives is also the reason why I’m excited to host :)
