About Me

ABOUT ME
After living for three years in South America and more than two on the tiny island of Lampedusa, in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, as well as in Bari, in Southern Italy, working with refugees, I am now heading to Indonesia!

This journey, started in Australia as a solo trip with a one-way ticket, now sees me sharing the road with my partner Ryan. Please check his CS profile under Ryan Beringer at:
https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/rcberinger

No fixed plan for the journey: as for any good trip, the unplanned will guide our steps!

Curious about traveling, the feeling of having no roots, or better: to have a home in any place I go. Vegetarian as a lifestyle, I am a water and open-space lover: I deeply enjoy riding my bike, running, swimming, trekking and climbing... but most of all: eating!!
You will find me snooping among your recipes ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Vivi e lascia vivere.. live and let live

Music, Movies, and Books

Not crazy for horror movies and science fiction books. 'A year with the French' by Fouad Laroui was a stroke of lightning. I generally enjoy any kind of music, depending on the moment and the situation. However, I have a personal soft spot for swing music.
