About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Carpe Diem. To live in the moment, travel and meet new friends along the way.

ABOUT ME

I was born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. My family is a mix of mostly Italian and French. I speak both English and French but English is my mother tongue. I'm an easygoing person who enjoy socializing and working with people. I love to travel, cook and read a lot about current events. I enjoying being outdoors when the weather is good and love the water, especially the beach. I have a familiarity with computers and I enjoy using the net and playing online games. I have traveled a lot in Asia, I was teaching Korea for a few years. I spent a year in 2008 in Australia that was great. I recently was recognized as an Italian citizen, which I am very happy about. I now hope to finally travel to Italy and learn Italian...I am looking to travel/work/study in the next two years, hopefully somewhere in Europe.

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well I started in 2009 after discovering CS in Australia. I sadly forgot about CS for a few years but I'd like to get involved now. I hope to travel Europe for awhile and then work/study somewhere in Europe. I hope to meet interesting new people who I can share cool experiences with and learn from. I hope that when I am settled down (in whatever country I end up stopping in for an extended period of time) that I can host other surfers. For now I am proud citizen of two great countries, resident of none.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Brief experience in 2009. I have re-discovered and rewrote much of my CS profile. I look forward to embracing CS in European/global travels. Just started :-)
