Half-Tuscan, half-Yorkshire, grew up in Italy, lived in the UK 2008-2016. Back in Italy since March 2016.

I am a translator, writer, reader, editor, and really enjoy languages.
Vegetarian, mildly straight edge, definitely nerdy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I live in a spacious flat, and have plenty of time to spare showing people around now I'm back in the country! I enjoy sharing places and stories with people, and really want to meet a wider net of people for future travels, too.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music comes and goes in waves, but I usually dabble my ears in prog, rock, alt rock, electronic, hip hop, soundtracks and scores. I'll give anything a try though!

Film-wise, recent discoveries have been Liberal Arts (with its many faults), Only Lovers Left Alive (with very few faults), and I am a big fan of La Meglio Gioventù, A Single Man, Sunshine. Fair to say that I like clever comedy, too, with Community and Parks and Rec ranking high.

Books - too many. Pratchett, Ness, Ali Smith, Winterson, Keegan. Many many comics too, from Blankets to WicDiv, from Kate Beaton to DeConnick, via Kot, Carey, Willow Wilson.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, recommendations, conversations, cleanliness, languages, puns, comics.
