✔Living twice in Spain for summer jobs (in Valencia and in Costa Brava).
✔An internship in Brighton, UK.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like meeting new people, making friends... I think a stranger is a just a friend I haven't met yet ☺ "chi trova un amico trova un tesoro"

Interests

Travelling is my biggest passion. In my free time I enjoy doing sports, horse-riding, watching films and tv shows, reading... I also really like food (cooking but mostly eating). I love the outdoors, hanging out with animals and being at the beach.

Music, Movies, and Books

Some bands/singers I like are Red Hot Chili Peppers, Cat Stevens, The Beatles, Queen, Bob Marley, Tame Impala... it's pretty varied really!

Some of the films I really enjoyed are Django Unchained, Dead Poets Society, The Hunt, The Big Lebowski...

My absolute favourite book is Warrior of the Light by Paulo Coelho. I also really like the Italian book Venuto al Mondo by Margaret Mazzantini.
