Overview
About Me
I'm an Italian girl, solo traveller and in love with Europe and South America. I'm based in Turin and when I travel I bring the spirit of my city with me. I used to travel and working in exchange of accomodation, the main reason is that I love engaging with people on a personal level, learning how they live and get inspired by that.
I travel slow, with "humility, essenciality and frugality" because the more essencial you are the more you become rich...of experiences. People say I'm a positive person, and they're probably right, I always try to see "the glass half full" and not to become negative when things are not going as I planned (that is really likely to happen when you travel low-cost). I'm really stubborn, I have goals in my life that I want to reach.
If you meet me somewhere in Turin, you will probably notice that I'm a quite and introverted person, but if you meet me anywhere else in the world you will notice that I'm a totally different person, open and ready to start and embrace every new conversation.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Curiosity at first. But after my solo trip in Portugal I realised that is because I love meeting different people, learning and speaking new languages, find friends all over the world and smile to everyone.

Music, Movies, and Books
Leon, Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain, The 25th hour
I listen to rock music, metal, crossover, but generally all the music that is able to make me fell something. System of a Down is my favourite group since I was 15, I went to two of their concert in Milan.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Going to live alone in Canada, with no contacts and no friends and starting a new (for 6 months) life!
Teach, Learn, Share
I want to learn how to be more open-minded in life. I grew up in a very small town, where there was no chance to be different, and this is something that I'm trying to leave in my past. I can teach how to travel several month with just a 10Kg cabin bag and not to remain neaked at the end of the trip.
Sharing is the best part of a trip, sharing stories, tips, tales, traditions.....
What I Can Share with Hosts
I know Turin and Piedmont very well. But I can offer a more interesting trip to who wants to stay outside the city and enjoy natures, wine, good food and amazing spots and castles not so far from Turin, but far enough to breath something different.
