CURRENT MISSION

To become a good social designer. To get to know different cultures, points of view and new perspectives on life.

ABOUT ME

I'm a 27 years old designer, from Italy; I'm chronically creative, interested in everything new, dreamer, open minded, big reader of books.
I'm currently working as an intern for United Nations in Vienna, in the field of Design for Social Development.
I'm also working as an au pair, and sharing my life with girls coming from Scotland, South Africa and USA.
Being a citizen of the world and living in an intercultural environment are my daily bread.
I love travelling: I've visited most of Europe and I have been in Australia, where I left a piece of my hearth.
I'm caring, friendly, kind.
My boyfriend is a guitarist, and with him I enjoy listening to very good music and discovering new artists.
I love cinema, especially movies creating fantastic worlds, or showing reality in a poetic way.

PHILOSOPHY

Live intensely every moment

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing cause I really love to meet new people, see new places, and add lovely memories to my emotional baggage.
It gives me the chance to expand my cultural horizon, to get more open minded, to practice kindness.
I have a lot to share about my experiences all over, my super interesting job and the design world in general.
