About Me

I'm a Slovak-Italian girl with a great passion for travelling.
I love discovering new cultures and being in touch with people all around the world. Also I really love walking, could do It for hours and hours, above all if surrounded by nature or breathtaking architecture.
At the moment I'm living in Brussels, for a translation internship.

I always try to meet people from all around the world, just to get in contact with different perspectives and interesting minds and thoughts that can be inspiring.

I could describe myself as an open-minded wanderer, a passionate back-packer and someone that is looking for beauty around her all the time, both in arts and in people.

I'm a sociable person for most of the time, even if sometimes I just like to stay on my own and wonder about things. That's where, maybe, my more philosophical-analytical part comes.

I'm an amateur photographer, above all during my travels. I try to catch the hidden beauty of things in my pictures, or express my thoughts through writing, above all poetry.

Human rights, feminism are also a consistent part of my life and my activism.Some people say I am very polemic, I disagree.

I love photography, foreign cultures, reading, poetry, hiking, climbing, meditation, neuroscience and cakes. I love people and discovering the genuine humanity that you can often find in them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet local people to get in touch with their culture, and maybe ask them for tips about the place they live in. For proving to the world that the ideal of sharing is not an utopia and experience how nice humanity can be.

Interests

I'm kind of passionate of everything that concerns culture in the large sense and foreign cultures. I like discovering different points of view on the world and share mine. The kind of conversations I really appreciated usually concern politics, philosophy, litterature or just the world we live in.
I'm particularly fond of literature, poetry (writing verse sometimes), photography and hiking.
I appreciated long walks, interesting people, nice music concerts, museums, art.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love especially rock, folk and post-punk music, but also jazz and blues, even if sometimes a peaceful piano is all I need.

I love too many books to list them, but I love poetry in particular. Among my favourite authors Pessoa, Kundera, Ulickaja, Saramago, Murakami, Cortazar, and many others
