I’m Michèle, I’m 24 years old and I was born in Switzerland but I grew up in Ecuador and in Florida. I love to travel and meet new people, I’m open-minded and easygoing. I studied architecture and graduated from the University of Florida and I’m currently working as an intern for a few years before starting my masters. I’m in Rome until the end of July- learning Italian and looking for a summer job! In August I will be moving to Aarhus, Denmark for my next internship.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on the move a lot and I will be for a while so I figured it’s a good way to meet new people.

Music, Movies, and Books

My music is a mix of stuff but according to my Spotify I listen to mostly indie, rock, punk, pop and electro. Some of my top artists are Destroyer, The Antlers, Devendra Banhart, Youth Lagoon, The Smiths, Bob Dylan, Arctic Monkeys, The Clash, All Them Witches, Beach House. I really love discovering new music :)
I don’t watch a lot of TV or films in general but I love a good movie and a good series every once in a while. Sometimes I’ll play friends or the office in the background while I’m working, but usually I just play music.
Currently reading “L’amica geniale” by Elena Ferrante. My favorite book is probably “The house of spirits” by Isabel Allende.
