Proud European citizen, I was raised in Italy , studied in France and worked in International Development in the Western Balkans before landing a job in sustainability in London.

I am a vegan. A yogi. A wannabe minimalist. A compulsive reader of self development and economics books. The co-founder of a slow fashion movement. An advocate for diversity and inclusion in the workplace and in policymaking. A morning person. And the proud wife of a man who also likes travelling alone.

Currently exploring the Balkans and learning how to balance on my head.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel to meet people who can challenge my viewpoint and teach me something about their world. I believe in good things coming, in human connections and in building friendships all around the world.
