ABOUT ME
I love and I am... in random order..
Dancing, Live performances, Yoga, Meditation, Non-judgemental listener, Social butterfly, rock/reggae/jazz (and more), Reading non-fiction, Energetic, Independent woman, Responsible, Arts & culture enthusiast!
IF YOU HOST ME:
I'm clean, tidy and well organised.
Respectful of other's people space and house's rules.
IF WE CATCH UP:
I'm proactive, optimist, energetic, pragmatic and I love evolving, learning and experiencing what's new to me, but sensibly.
To me sincerity is a great value and I believe that sharing what you really think makes life easier and beautiful :o)
And now some THINGS THAT I LIKE DOING... so, if you like them too, we can share some interests ;o)
I enjoy going to festivals and arty&cultural events... here in Melbourne and Oz in general there are so many!
I love dancing... almost all kind of music, the important is having fun with people and putting the dance-floor on fire!
I really enjoy having good and deep conversations respecting different ways of thinking and trying to empathize with others as much as possible... and I wish even others respect my opinion.
I enjoy travelling, exploring new cultures and spending time outdoor, usually pretty busy as I have a pretty active social life, moreover I go to 10,000 workshops ^_^... I also look for time for contemplation.
I love reading non-fiction books but, I'm sorry, I don't lend them to anyone... I can suggest my favourite ones though...
Are you a meditator? Let's seat together :D
PHILOSOPHY
Life in itself is an incredible opportunity.
The world is a book and those who don't travel read only a page.
No matter how you've found it, just leave it better.
At last, but not the least: FREEDOM & RESPECT!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on Couchsurfing to dig into the culture of the places I visit, to meet new interesting people, to learn and share.
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Can share plenty of info about Melbourne with good tips.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I couchsurfed even when I wasn't connected through CS to those amazing people I met in Spain, Portugal and UK.
Friends or strangers that then became friends... life is amazing!
On the other hand, the funniest time I hosted was when I bumped into a guy who lost his friends at a huge New Year's party. He ended up staying on the couch at my shared house for 4 days and I gave him my socks, because even after machine washing, his socks didn't smell... of jasmine... maybe he tried to kill me ;oP
