About Me

Hi there !

I am Currently traveling around the south of Chile : )

Way before I ever knew couchsurfing I was already a traveller, I mean, way before I wanted to travel or wanted to be a traveller my parents took me to some amazing places I couldn't even remember if it wasn't for that great invention call photography, so when I was 5 years old I visited Machu-Pichu and before that they took me to have a look to the Halley comet at Valle del Elqui (which is passing next to Earth every 75-76 years!), not to mention all the family trips we did to the north and the south of Chile every summer.
When I finished high school I decided to study abroad (secretly I just wanted to travel) , so moved out and study Art at the University of Bologna and went on living alone at age 19 in Italy (thats a pretty long story to tell here), meanwhile I started travelling all over Europe...............

I guess the best way to know about me is to read the references from people I hosted and visited since I am on couchsurfing ;)
