About Me

CURRENT MISSION

finding my way in this world

ABOUT ME

I like mostly travelling, discovering new places, meet new people and sharing different experiences. That's why I decided to study foreign languages at university.

PHILOSOPHY

Like Mark Twain said:

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

"Considerate la vostra semenza:
fatti non foste a viver come bruti,
ma per seguir virtute e canoscenza"

(Dante Alighieri, Divina Commedia, Inferno, canto XXVI)

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

One of my friends suggested me to join this community and it's simply great!

Interests

Love to travel, listen to all kinds of music, read (books and movies mostly in mother language) and experience different cultures. I love especially China and Latin America.
I like hanging out with friends, drinking beer, talking and discussing about everything and even if I'm a girl, I love football!

Music, Movies, and Books

I can't live with no music. First of all Nirvana, they're my first love. The bands I love more are Coldplay, Arcade Fire, Radiohead, Muse, Placebo, Manu Chao and many Italian bands. Anyway, I like all kinds of music.

I love watching movies: Big Fish, Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie, The Concert, Departures, Lost in Translation are my favorite ones, but for me Pedro Almodóvar is the best director ever.

I love especially TV shows, like HIMYM, The Big Bang Theory, Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, Dexter and many others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I've done has been riding down the Great Wall..what a crazy experience!

And how can I forget about my 1 minute talk with Samuel Eto'o in Milan?

Teach, Learn, Share

If someone is interested in learning Italian I can be definitely helpful.
I can speak also Spanish, Chinese (I'm trying to do it, but it's so hard) and a bit of French.
I'd love to start learning German too and I'm ready for any kind of language exchange.
