ABOUT ME

I've recently moved to Sheffield to study History at Uni, after having grown up in Italy. It's taken a while to get used to the cold and dark of the North, but I really enjoy living here, it's a great town and would be glad to show it to any future surfers. I'm on my summer break right now and getting ready for a big trip to Japan, which I hope will be incredible! There is so much culture I want to learn about and hopefully couchsurfing will make the trip even better!

PHILOSOPHY

'Onesto'. That's an Italian word that literally translates as 'honest', but I take it to have broader meaning which I guess would sound like 'anything is fine by me, I don't really care as long as everybody has a good time.'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing and hosting, I'd be glad to share the little I know of Sheffield with anyone who needs a couch :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed across the USA a couple of years ago with a friend from high school and really enjoyed it! We met some truly fantastic people in both Chicago and LA, and made some amazing friends thanks to couchsurfing.
Also surfed in Edinburgh this February, had a great time!
