Hi couchsurfers,
I'm Valentina and I'm an italian girl.
I’m a simple and quiet person and I’m always interested in a million things and I’m very creative, reliable and responsible.
I’ve always had an interest for dancing that I’ve practiced for several years: first modern dance and then latin dance.
One of my biggest passions is photography. I love taking pictures of everything in different ways and I have participated in two competitions; I didn’t win but I was happy because my photos were appreciated.
I also like travelling. I like the idea of visiting new places, discovering new cultures, meeting new people and that’s why I love studying languages that allow me to communicate with anyone.
In October, I found online the "AuPair in America" programme and I told to myself: this is my chance!
It’s a great way for travelling and meeting new people but another reason that prompted me to choose this programme is my love for children.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling and learning new things from different cultures every day.
This website gives the possibility to people to share their culture, their food, their interests and , in general, the way of life.
In our lives, there's always more to learn.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - I love any kind of music
Movies - I can not say how many movies I've seen in my life... but trust me, there are many. One of my favorite is Forrest Gump (who doesn't?)
I'm also in love with tv series like Breaking Bad or La casa de papel
Books - La differenza dei numeri primi, Quando tutto inizia, The Hunger Games...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

An incredible thing I did?
Well, I think that leaving home, family, friends, school and reaching America alone, without knowing anyone, can be considered an incredible thing.
Many people to whom I told what I did, ask me: what? I would never do it. It takes a lot of courage to do something like that.

For me it isn't a big thing but if I see this from another point of view, I'm really proud of my choice.

Teach, Learn, Share

As I wrote before, I love always learning something different from others.
Obviously I would like to share part of my culture with you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great fun! With me you won't be bored. Also I can do really cook a delicius Italian dinner!!
