About Me

I have two kids, aged 7 and 3 years- there are my job and the reason to wake up - early! - in the morning. I am currently studying to become a translator.
I am optimist, I like to observe and to listen.

A few years ago I had quite a massive operation on my tongue and since then I speak with a funny accent - so I am used to sometime repeat the same thing over and over again to get my point across

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

because I am curious and I love to share - in fact, one of my dream is living in a house where I could be a good friend with all my neighbours - we will have the yard in common and have a few rooms for people couchsurfing by.

Interests

I am trying to live a life that does not harm other people and that can, who knows, maybe improve other lives. That would be good.

I try to be sincere with myself, and teach my children to do the same. I prefer vegan food, but I am a work in progress on this issue - I love to learn about different ways to eat.

I am very independent and I love to smile.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am not very good with music - I enjoy it, like everybody, but I have never been passionate about it

Same with movies: love them, but nothing stands out.

Books: mostly classics. I have a weakness for Bill Bryson.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learning how to eat and speak again at the age of 28, together with my then newborn son.

Teach, Learn, Share

As I said, I love to learn how to cook - I am not a good cook, I am afraid, but I can buy the ingredients and I am a great sous-chef.

I'd like to learn whatever, really. I am a good student.

And if you are curious about me, and you think I can help you in something, please ask - I like to share and no question is stupid or boring.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My humble apartment and gigantic balcony - I have a couch that turns into a bed but, unfortunately, only one bathroom. We wake up at 7 and my kids go to bed at 21-21:30
