About Me

I have just finished my degree in classical philology - latin and ancient greek. Next year I plan on studying a master, in order to continue my academic career doing a PhD in Greek mythography. I am currently trying to figure out how to live a minimalist and happy life without being absorbed by the capitalist machinery.

I love animals and nature - that's why I try to do the less harm as possible being an ethical vegan and a conscious buyer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling but I hate massive turism. I prefer to experience with local people a country or a city rather than just visiting it.

Interests

Since I was a little kid I've loved being alone doing my own handcrafts, ilustrations or simply traveling into another worlds through fantasy lectures. Now I can apreciate classical and "high" literature, as well.

A couple months ago I have started learning to play the guitar, something that I have always wanted to do but I have never had the patience nor time. When I was ten I used to play the piano, but I have forgotten most of what I learned.

I love practicing yoga and pilates.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love weird music, local bands. My favourite music genres are tweepop, indie, garage and experimental. Some groups I really like are: AIR, King Gizzard and the Lizzard Wizard, Animal Collective, Neutral Milk Hotel...

I love every Sofia Coppola movie.

Although I consider myself an hellenist, my ultimate favourite book is the Aeneid of Vergil.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last summer my boyfriend and I went in a HelpX experience. We spent a month in the countryside of Sweden, helping a marvelous family of artists!
