About Me

I’m 37 years old, I’m originally from Sicily but I’ve lived in Milan for 18 years now.
I moved to Milan over 18 years ago as a student.
I graduated from Catholic University in 2007 with a Master’s degree in Political Science.
After I graduated, I worked in Information technology as Business analyst for an international, specialized provider of engineering software solutions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After 10 years working at the same company, I decided that I wanted a fresh challenge, so I resigned and I gave myself a sabbatical year to learn English (I have an elementary knowledge of English language), cultivate my passions and explore the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

Book: American literature, European literature
Movie: horror movie, triller, comedy

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Starting alone for Morocco, my first trip abroad, and discovering that travels were the main passion of my life!

Teach, Learn, Share

See What I can share with hosts: those are my passions!

What I Can Share with Hosts

• Child care: Children are the flowers of our world! I love being with them, taking care of them and taking care of their growth. It's nice to see how their skills develop. To be more ready to take care of the children, I took part in the first pediatric emergency course that took place in Milan in June 2018

• Cooking: I am very good at cooking! I love healthy Mediterranean cuisine but, during my travels for the world, I have learned many interesting variations that I like to repeat when I go back home

• Management of a holiday house: I take care of the website "www.casaperiammoddu.com" through which my boyfriend and I run a holiday home in Sicily, so I’m able to manage customers

• Computers: I worked many years in information technology so I can be very helpful with my computer skills that include Office (Word, Excel, Power Point) - Email - Internet

• Travel: I am very good at organizing trips, especially backpacking trips, in contact with nature and the population of the place: the activity of travel designer is one of my favorites!

• Hiking: I really enjoy hiking… It makes me feel good to be in the majesty of nature

• Art and Litterature: I love reading and I'm good at writing short stories (in Italian, of course!): it's a natural talent, but I perfected it by participating in 2014 in the high school "The pleasure of writing", studying literature and great authors

• Theater: I really like theater art and, during high school, I was part of the theater company
