Hello everyone, my name is Anna, I’m an Italian girl from Bologna, but I’ve been living in Florence for 3 years. I’m 28 years old, I graduated in law and, after some work experiences (mostly, in the courthouse and in the legal field), I started to work for a digital company that deals with public welfare.

This job is in full remote - so I need just my computer to work – and this situation gives me a lot of possibilities to travel around. I immediately took the chance to travel and to launch myself into new adventures.

In my free time I keep on studying different subjects, because for me it’s very important to improve myself and to take care of my personal growth.

I like both calm activities (like reading, listening to music, watching movies, going to art galleries, to classical/ jazz concerts or opera) and more dynamic situations (such as dancing, going to rock concerts, discovering nightlife, exploring cities or nature and doing physical activities). For this reason, I think that I can easily adapt to different lifestyles and that finding common interests won't be difficult!

I have a kind, sweet and sociable personality, I enjoy the company, but I can also be very independent. I’m respectful, trustworthy and not intrusive, so I haven't difficulties in getting along with people. I always try to make comfortable the people around me and I’m really interested in knowing them and their stories. I also like animals and I have a special feeling with them!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

All my travel experiences since now were wonderful: I met really interesting and welcoming people, I visited amazing places and experienced new things. I'd like to keep on doing this kind of trips, because I'm enjoying a lot this lifestyle: I think there’s nothing better than discovering a culture with the locals and sharing knowledges about languages and cultures. I feel very grateful to have the possibility to do this kind of experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

At the moment, one of my biggest goals is improving English and French and learning Portuguese, so I'd be glad to have language exchanges, practicing foreign languages or teaching each other our native languages.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm an hard-worker person and, if I have to do any kind of work, I’m very determinate, reliable and precise in doing it. I always help with housekeeping and general cleaning and maintenance of the house.

I enjoy teaching languages and I already have some expérience with it. I’m very patient and careful, and I can help you with an effective method based on everyday sentences, or I can teach you a deep and structured knowledge of vocabulary and grammar, depending on your needs and level.

I’ve done classical dance for a lot of years, and also other kinds of dance, fitness activities and sports. We could train together and set a fitness plan.

I truly love animals, they make me feel cheerful, and I think I can quickly reach a good feeling with them.

I have a lot of different interests that I'd like to share, to make each other richer inside, thanks to this kind of experience and mutual help.
