Hi I'm Maria! I'm a really sociable person who loves to be with good friends. I like to cook and eat together and to talk about everything and anything. My little passion is my sewing machine; I love to sew because it's a way to calm down afther a stressful time and because of the result that I'm holding in my hands when it's done. I also spent a lot of time on my balcony to watch my plants grow. All of them are edible. And I have a small garden nearby where I will spend a lot of time during the spring and summer. You can join me if you want to and have a nice chill out in the hammock and enjoy the great view at the city. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I know how hard it is to find a place to sleep sometimes so I want to offer one more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think one of the most amazing things every year is it to organize a little festival with a lot of music, good meal and a lot of fun with friends. It's a small event but a lot of work, stress, fun and lucky moments too :)
Oh and my trip to Ireland with a good friend of mine. We met so many nice people. Some of the best weeks I ever had!
