Hello!
I'm Chiara. I'm 26, I come from Italy but I'm currently living in Sweden on and off since 2019 (it's a year that I'm here in total), after living in Ireland for 3 years.
I'm working as the operations manager for a non-profit association.

I like learning new things about other cultures, reading books, listening to music that makes me feel good, meditating, practicing kundalini yoga, being in nature. Friends would call me a well-hidden hippie (I don't dress or look hippie, but I truly am one at heart, if you get to know me).
I'm vegan when I can, when I can't I'm vegetarian.

5 random facts about me (because why not):
I'm left handed
I love nature
I'm learning to sew but I don't have my sewing machine with me now and I'm a little sad about it
I love cats
I'm a super introvert (which doesn't mean I don't know how to socialise, I do. It just means I get tired quickly when I'm around people, as much as I may like them, so I need some me time to recharge).

I try to be as eco-friendly as possible. I'd love to try homesteading one day, when I'll decide to spread my roots somewhere, or start a community.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I want to learn about people's lives and their stories, their cultures, help them and share my story and my culture, and meet new people.
I hope to host in the future, when I settle down.

Música, películas y libros

I don't have a favourite song or genre, but I'd say the music that makes me most emotional is "epic music" or music from movie soundtracks (Two Steps from Hell, Audiomachine, Hans Zimmer...).

Same thing for movies. If it's a good movie, with a good plot and possibly a nice message, I'll watch it.

I'm a little picky for books. I like to read anything if it gets my attention.
