Ciao my name is Emily. I am Italian-American, mi parenti sono di Salerno y New Jersey. I have been living in Siena but am eager to explore Sicily with local people. I am a flexible person, willing to try everything at least once. I am always looking to grow as a person, to question my surroundings, and expand my understanding of the world. Andiamo!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
