Couchsurfing is NOT a dating app, please DON'T send me any message asking me to hang out if you hope that will become a date. Thank you

Hi everyone!!!
I am Martina, artist from Italy.
I love to travel,
to enjoy the Beauty of Life and meet open minded people to live experiences together.

What do I live for? -
NATURE CONNECTION
ART
FREE EXPRESSION
SOULS CONNECTION

I am passionate about...

**many more things right now -2026- but I am too lazy to properly update this bio so here you can find my presentation from 10 years ago, I've changed a lot, but still deeper into myself** :)))

... feeling immersed in Nature, animals, trees and flowers.
I am passionate about sunrises and sunsets.
I am passionate about expressing myself through free dance and singing and create... painting and other stuff. :)
I love Colours and Light!
I love cats, beer and recently discovered a new love for sushi.
I really love cats.

I looove discovering natural beauties up in the mountains as much as under the sea.
My greatest outdoor passions are climbing and scuba diving.
I love to get lost in the woods and climb upon trees reaching to the sky, to look around me from high above, feeling myself as a wild bird.

2025 has hit hard on me and my life, leaving me with deep inner and physical scars... the healing process was long, seeming endless at some points, but now I know it was not.
I am finding my spark back, my joy and passion for life, and I've learnt to trust the process, the dark, the low, the dirt... training myself to feel wider than ever.
Keep going 🍀🌻

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I survived one night up and out in the mountains, at the height of 4.000 Mt above the sea, next to the Matterhorn.
I got lost and slept under the stars.

Swam with a dolphin in Bali.
