CURRENT MISSION

Spreading the vegan message through film

ABOUT ME

I'm an Italian/American born in Italy who lives in Brussels. I studied film in Kristiansand, Norway.
I love travelling and meeting new people, especially discovering different perspectives about life.
I've been to the U.S., Iceland, Denmark, France, Germany, Switzerland, Latvia, Spain, The Netherlands and Belgium.
In 2008 I was an AFS exchange student in Alta, northern Norway. I've seen the northern lights and the midnight sun. I've experienced walking around when it was -25 degrees outside. But I can tell you more about it when we meet!

I love Philosophy, arts in general and I'm a passionate filmmaker (well, I try my best!). I love to discuss about big questions in life with people, while laughing as much as I can.

I practice Shinnyo-en esoteric Buddhism, a type of Buddhism originated in Japan. I love fruit and its no-karma essence, but of course I cannot miss out on the local vegan food when travelling :)
I'm very passionate about veganism and about spreading the awareness towards a more compassionate world, for the planet's well-being, for the animals and for humans.
My goal is to live in a self sustained eco-village one day.

Let's talk about it! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted several people and enjoyed every single one of them! I've been brought up in a multicultural family (American father/Italian mother) so I love to exchange cultures and understand the interconnection that we have as humans.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think I understand how gravity works...maybe, wait, an apple just fell on my head!

Experiencing the northern lights and the midnight sun in Norway.

I like background acting and participated in several films with Emma Watson, Daniel Brühl, Rupert Everet, Colin Firth and lately I had a small Norwegian speaking role in a Swedish movie. What I love about these experiences is meeting fellow film lovers and understanding how filmmaking is all about collaboration and team work.
