About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience something life-changing.

ABOUT ME

I haven't been traveling in a while (almost three years now) and I miss it terribly.
I'm a little introverted but I love getting to know people, finding out their quirks, that's the best part.
I love family, they're the best and consider my good friends to be my family.
Food is one of the greatest things in life. I love it; eating, cooking, smelling, ah. I'm more than happy to spend an entire day in the kitchen listening to good music and making a feast.
I took writing in school and like to use people and traveling as my muses so you can help me out!

PHILOSOPHY

If you're never hurt, scared or embarrassed, you aren't taking enough chances.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd love to get together with some surfers, to host or just hang out.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed a few times in Europe and was incredibly lucky each time. I also met a few people for drinks trying to get to know the area in Italy where I lived. I've hosted several times but unfortunately I have a crazy life and not a ton of time to devote to newcomers to Toronto.

Interests

Volleyball, writing, cooking/baking, music; playing and singing, black and white films, languages, ancient history, questioning the world, old-fashioned things in general.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always packs at least one pair of thick socks; please, thank you and a smile can go a long way; always try to see an argument from both sides, it helps you to be more understanding of everyone. It's not what you say, it's how you say it.
