I’m an Italian pharmacology researcher at UCL living in London. I am from Firenze, Italy, and after spending a year abroad as foreign exchange student in Wisconsin, USA, I moved to London in 2014 where I attended university and where I work now.
I am a food lover and I equally love to cook and eat! Unfortunately I’m not the best baker around, but I love cakes and chocolate 😊
I have travelled all around Europe and North Africa and my latest big trip was an adventurous tour of Indonesia, where I backpacked with a group of 15 friends.
My next trip will be visiting the marvellous Hawaiian islands and I cannot wait to see the beauty of the landscapes, learn the locals traditions and eat all the food!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
