Overview
About Me
Born in Italy, adopted by the world. My daily routine revolves around finding new places to explore and to marvel at. I am an industrious little creature with an unrestrained growing passion for traveling and foreign cultures. I love cats, movies, traveling, drinking tea and a good chat about all of the above. I must warn you though, I am one of the most straightforward persons you could ever meet. And unusual. And weird, but in a good and adorable way!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on couchsurfing to meet new people, to get in touch with foreign cultures through the eyes of passionate locals. Giving and receiving, that's something I learned about travelling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Spent two days hiking the Clearwater cave system in Mulu National Park, Malaysian Borneo, in 2016. Had to prove fit enough to join the expedition and I did ! Spent hours squeezing and climbing and getting all sorts of dirty. Walked in darkness and bathed in pristine underground river waters. Magical and rewarding!
Teach, Learn, Share
“I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes.
Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're Doing Something.
So that's my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes nobody's ever made before. Don't freeze, don't stop, don't worry that it isn't good enough, or it isn't perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work or family or life.
Whatever it is you're scared of doing, Do it.
Make your mistakes, next year and forever.”
Neil Gaiman
