i am an outgoing, bridget-jones-kind of a person (disorganized head but in a likable way). i am italian, from Rome, but i travel and go living abroad as much as i can. still looking for opportunities to change the course of my life, meaning: i like to move between interests , potential career paths, and places to live. i am an extremely curious person, curious about all aspects of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

i am on couchsurfing for two reasons:
1- because i enjoy a lot travelling alone and i like to check out the opportunities that this network can provide me with, in terms of sharing this experience with locals or fellow travelers;
2- since 2014, i have been inviting everyone i meet who's going to Rome to stay at my place . My mother's place is quite big, welcoming and very well-situated. i know that as tourists, people are often unsatisfied with the way they had been treated , and they can end up having a bad memory of Rome. i really dislike that, so i try to give a more authentic experience by welcoming travelers in my mother's house knowing that she will treat them as it was me visiting. since then, only good energy came out from this exchange.
3- of course, i am in for hosting and generally welcoming people in Geneva too
