:) I grew up in a tiny village in the countryside of Verona (Italy), a peaceful and friendly place..and although I love Italy, since I were a little girl my mind was flying around all places, developing this inner need to explore the world, meet new cultures and interact with people. I inevitably became a world citizen. the result so far? I have been living in Barcelona, Venice, London, Beijing, Phuket, Sydney, Paris and NYC. During these 'explorations' i had the chance to meet some truly unique people, and some of them through CS.
As for me. I'd say I am respectful and honest..and I tend to expect others to behave the same way. I learnt this does not always apply to everyone jeje.. I am very independent but I enjoy being in good company at the same time, i guess that is also why I like to cook for friends, myself and the family

PHILOSOPHY

always remember to smile :)
think positive
carpe diem

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surfed, hosted and travelled with fellow CS around four continents and it has been the most rewarding experience ever. I am currently in Paris but given the super small size of my studio flat I literally do not have any extra place to put a matress on the floor.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have been hosting friends and friends of friends for ages..I discovered CS through a casual meeting on a cold night in Verona, back home...believe it or not..in the tiniest bar in the world were sitting 5people with 5 different nationalities who did not know each other..and CS brought them together. almost every CS experience I have had so far has been good, and I am grateful for having had the opportunity to meet some great friends that are still such years later!.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

be patient. surfing, travelling or hosting wont always be 100% great, especially in the beginning. but then, when you are not expecting it, you'll meet that one or two that will blow your mind, and you know you will remain friends for a long long time
