Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To see, learn and experience as much of Europe in the next three months as possible
ABOUT ME
We are two girls studying in Italy and looking to see more of Europe! We figure we would like to see as much possible while we are here! We are looking to have a great time, learn more about different cultures and see the world!
PHILOSOPHY
Since we are not entirely sure what our "personal philosophies " we decided to go with a couple of our favorite inspiring quotes:
"You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.... You must do the thing you think you cannot do."
— Eleanor Roosevelt
"It is better to suffer wrong than to do it, and happier to be sometimes cheated than not to trust."
"Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pulsating desire which transcends everything." -Napolean Hill
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
This is our first time using the couchsurfing website which was referred to us by a friend who used it while studying abroad. She said it was a great way to actually experience the culture of every place you visit. What is better than actually living with and being shown around by someone who lives in the place you are interested in! We have been sleeping on couches and floors of friends all through college and love the feeling of being immersed in something completely new. We are extremely anxious for our next adventure and know that couch surfing will be able to provide that.
