Overview
About Me
1 night requests preferably :)
Born and raised in Northern Italy, but with English and Sicilian influences, I struggle to define myself as a citizen of a country. Basically, I like every place I go to, so I am yet to find my own personal home (although I have places I consider Home!), and this is why I see every chance to travel as one to seize.
I lived in Brussels for a few years, where I recently graduated in Political Science, after which I lived in London up, where I found a job that helps me make the world a better place. This job led me to Brazil, a place which I now call my home, after having a nomadic lifestyle for the last few years.
Lucky enough to have friends scattered all over the world, most of which are partially responsible of my wanderlust, I do my best to keep these friendships alive. What a struggle, and what a reward this task involves!
Other than trying to figure out my own path in this world, I aim to live sustainably, step by step working towards a zero-waste, zero-harm and low-emissions life. I believe that as individuals, we are given plenty of opportunities to gradually improve our sustainability, thus we must embrace these opportunities, even if gradually. My first step was to make a sustainable choice three times a day, when eating, and couldn't be happier with my choice. Enthusiasm is what keeps me going.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
CS entered my life right when I started travelling, and ever since, it has only given me experiences worth remembering, for good reasons of course. I started by being hosted, and when given the chance, I opened my home to welcome travellers. Looking forward to having my own place again to keep on hosting.
If I can't host, I will happily meet or help fellow couchsurfers.
Interests
Sports, travelling, music, food, veganism, environment, cultural differences, languages and international relations and geography, just some of the things I can think about!
Music, Movies, and Books
Bruce Springsteen. And so many behind him.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Watching the sun rise in Angkor Wat, or Bruce Springsteen play in San Siro for 3h40m, visiting Iguazú Falls, randomly see the northern lights in a time and place where you're not supposed to see them, and being introduced to the scuba-diving world, are just some of the amazing things I've done. Most memories, however, I find in the simple moments spent with the people I care about. Whether I have just met these people, or if they're lifelong friends, it doesn't matter.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love learning and teaching languages, so if you're down for a multi-lingual night out or city-tour, you can count on me!
