Overview
About Me
I’m a mix of adventure and curiosity — part Spanish/Italian, part British, and completely addicted to exploring new places, cultures, and conversations. I’m social, spontaneous, and love a good laugh (usually at my own expense). Whether it’s finding a hidden café, chatting over good wine, or wandering aimlessly through a new city, I’m always up for something that makes a great story later.
I’m passionate about creativity, human connection, and making the most of life’s random moments. I value kindness, humor, and people who don’t take themselves too seriously.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet interesting people, exchange stories, and see the world through local eyes. I believe some of the best travel moments happen when you least expect them — usually over good food, random plans, and great company.
Interests
I’m a mix of an adventurer, foodie, and culture junkie. I love:
🎨 Arts – Everything from street art to galleries. I’m the kind of person who’ll stop mid-walk to take a photo of a cool mural.
🎶 Concerts & Music – My happy place is live music — doesn’t matter if it’s a big festival or a tiny bar with an acoustic set.
🍷 Wine – Always up for a good glass and better conversation. Bonus points if there’s cheese involved.
🎬 Movies – Huge movie lover — from mind-twisting thrillers to the kind of comedies you quote forever.
🌍 Traveling – I’ve got a bit of wanderlust in my DNA. I love exploring new cities, finding hidden cafés, and learning local phrases I’ll probably mispronounce.
🥾 Hiking – Nature therapy. I’m all about breathtaking views, spontaneous trails, and snacks at the summit.
🍜 Foodie – I’ll try almost anything once. Street food, home-cooked meals, fine dining — it’s all an experience.
🗣️ Languages – Fascinated by how people express themselves. I speak a few and always love learning new words or accents.
👋 Meeting New People – I genuinely enjoy good company, real conversations, and finding common ground with total strangers who become friends.

Music, Movies, and Books
My playlists are all over the place — from chill indie and 80s classics to Latin beats and moody soundtracks. I love movies that make you feel something (and a few that just make you laugh until you can’t breathe). As for books, anything that pulls me into a story or teaches me something new has my heart.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Watched the sunrise from a mountaintop after hiking all night — exhausted, freezing, but completely worth it. Or maybe surviving my family’s “who cooks best” holiday dinners. Both equally impressive feats 😂
Teach, Learn, Share
I can share travel stories, languages (a bit of Spanish, and French), and my secret for making a mean Tiramisu. I love learning about people’s cultures, favorite local spots, and what makes them tick.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Good conversation, genuine curiosity, and probably too many snacks. I’m tidy, respectful, and always up for helping out — whether that’s cooking, exploring together, or just bringing a little humor to the day.
