Hi guys, I'm Chiara, I'm 20 years old from Italy, currently living in Australia for work. I would like to do this new experience of couchsurfing in order to meet new people and new cultures while travelling :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's one of the best ideas to meet new people while travelling, having fun, sharing your own culture and learn as much as you can

Interests

I've got a truly passion for cinema and everything involved in it such as costume and make up design and above all production design which I'm gonna study soon. I love travelling, I've already lived in Brazil for a year as an exchange student and now I'm in Australia trying to explore this amazing country. I love reading and watching history and art documentaries, I'm crazy about philosophy and literature. I love animals, especially cats and dogs :) I really enjoy going for long walks, exploring new countries, trekking, skiing and as I was born in a coastal city in Italy, I love swimming and snorkeling
