My name's Daphne, I moved to Trieste, Italy when I was 17, and fell in love with the city. After a few years back in Israel, my home country, I'm coming back to Italy to take it by storm! I'm here mostly for visiting friends and the country that has been a major part of my coming-of-age story.
I'm an undergrad student for biology on my summer vacation. I enjoy traveling, reading, art and films.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Connecting with different people from all over, seeing places from a non-tourist point of view and making the world a tiny bit smaller and familiarby exploration!

Music, Movies, and Books

Fitzgerald, Robert Charles Wilson and the occasional Paul Stewart
Neil Gaiman is also dear to my heart, as well as Saramago, which is my latest craze.

I believe I have a pretty decent taste in music, I love glam rock (Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Lou Reed etc etc) and 90s-early 2000s american and british rock like the Libertines and the strokes

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've traveled on my own throughout India, toured in the united states after living in Italy for 2 years.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great stories and an even greater company. I used to live in Trieste, so I'm only a half-tourist who is just looking for fun-filled hanging!
