I don't like so much to talk about myself, because I prefer to listen to the others' stories. I'm a generally happy person that sometimes enjoys melancholic moments.

I am 23 years old but I have so much to tell already and I don´t know where to start from honestly. I have travelled and met amazing people, but also travelled with my mind and I had adventures even between 4 walls of a house.
I like drinking kalimotxo (it´s a vasque drink made from coke and cheap red wine), and I go crazy for ethnic foods.

I was born in Foggia, a quite big town in South Italy, spent my university years in Bari, where I studied slavic languages and literature, and went to Finland for an exchange in 2012. There I fell in love with a finnish boy and here I am, living in Helsinki with the best man on earth. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I moved to Bari in the years of university, in the flat I chose there was a girl hosting a spanish girl: she was using this site. The day next I subscribed too. Once we got 4 guests. Two in my flatmates´s room, two in mine. My guests were finnish...coincidence? :)

Interests

Languages, translating, travelling, sewing, singing, painting, writing novels, reading...I like polish and russian literatures. They remind me some memories I cannot explain but with a landscapes/people description in a book. I lived in those places and when i travel, i always try to find details which remind me of them.
The thing I miss the most of Bari is to walk on the pier at night, along a wall...sit in the very edge and look at the city lights: still searching for a place like this in Helsinki.

I don t know if you ever had the feeling to be loved by someone who is not you lover: it can be just a friend or a stranger actually. When someone calls you several times while you´re sleeping and you think it´s already your alarm ringing and you keep dismissing it, then you realize it´s just 23:30 and he is saying "are you ok? I´m out of your door.." then, you let him enter and say "well, I am fine.." and all that he can do is to put you back in your bed, give you a kiss on your forehead and go away.
I think I couldn´t describe that sensation so well.
