About Me

Long term friendship on Couchsurfing are a gift, is what I try to find and open new opportunities.

I am a Couchsurfer by long time! I use to be an host and now I start to surf too.
I travel as a citizen of the world more than a tourist, so I love to meet locals and other travelers and create a sound for the mood of the city where I am.

You can use my profile for making me a pen pal too. I love to make network and building linkages between people. Just send me messages from around the world.
Why not? If you are so welcoming invite me in your countries.

BUT please.... avoid spam and flirting messages.

Mostly of my travel experience is oriented to mission of international cooperation and volunteering project around my lovely Asia continent. I can share a lot of stories about it. I'm italian but global citizen.

My world is your world… I’m the girl of the neighbour, I’m open-mind and frindly person, joyfull and inquiring of other culture and way of living.

I'm a global trotter but when I am in my place, I live in Avellino,Italy: a little, strategic city in the middle of green in the mountains at 30 km from Naples (Napoli) and Amalifitan Coast. Maybe its name is not written in your guide but is a nice place to discover for vineyards and local foods as cheese and dried fruits. If you guest or meet up in your place, why not? You can come to visit me here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

“The real voyage of discovery consist not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes” wrote Marcel Proust… and with CS I always dress different glasses for seeing the world.

My mission is knowing on Couchsurfing people of all part of world. Make network and have fun, as possible help each other in our contries for CS experience.

I strongly love hosting guest and sharing economy, is an experience that I suggest to live to everyone.

I open my home especially to girls and women who travel alone (I'm eterosexual) and couples (expecially if you are a multicultural couple).

Interests

Actually I plan to discover a minimum of 3 nations every years for a better soul :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a non conventional people. I'm interesting fon indipendent authors. I'd like if you are one of them! I like the essai cinema, indipendent writers and musicians. For the mainstream, I've a strong passion for Woody Allen, Fatih Akin and Hal Ashby. I love Peter Gabriel especially with Genesis and etnical contaminations, Bjork, Philiph Glass, Radiohead. The pages of Roland Barthes, Ryszard Kapuscinski and the poems of Wisława Szymborska.

My favourite Ted speaker? Hans Rosling.

Teach, Learn, Share

I feel a truly italian ambassador!

I can teach you how to prepare and tast italian coffee Espresso.

I can teach you italian and italian local history, I was also a teacher for college and high school, and I like to teach. I'm open to learn and sharing everything is possible.

I can adapt the visit in the city and around to your personal tastes and interests.

I can be your personal shopper for clothes, food and special requests.

If you planned your trip with me I can help you to organize your travel in Italy choosing the best way for travelling with low cost opportunities.

I'm from the region of Campania: I can help you for planning trips in Naples, Amalfitan Coast, Avellino & Irpinia.

Learning? Whatever of curious or normal you want to share. You and your culture are a present for me!
