EU and Italian citizen constantly on the move.
Always eager to travel and visit new places, and even more to live abroad and get to know how life actually is in other countries. My interest for the Middle East brought me to Tunis, Cairo, Istanbul and now Beirut, where I work for an NGO.
Still wondering what next!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

To meet and talk with locals, connect with the local culture and take advices on what I should not miss in the country I am visiting.

Unfortunately, I am currently living in a house belonging to the organization I work for, and I cannot host couchsurfers. Hopefully, I'll be able to do it in a close future.

Interessen

International relations, law and politics; literature and graphic novels; food culture.
I have also been lucky enough to grow up in a family where music was always all around. I used to play drums and percussions (but I wouldn't dare to call myself a drummer right now :-) Need to catch up on that, though).
Not really into sports, but totally passionate about snowboarding.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe
