About Me

CURRENT MISSION

finish my dissertation and keep working as art curator

ABOUT ME

I'm finishing my Ph.D studies at the Rutgers University (NJ) where I also worked for five years as an assistant curator at the Zimmerli Art Museum. I love it. Art is something that makes me breathe, happy and feel alive. I would like to spend a period in Russia to study and writing about the non-conformist art and related artists that developed there during the 1970s and 1980s.
I consider myself a person with a great sense of humour and capable of solving hopeless situations with a laugh. I love meeting new people. Of course, after ten minutes that you know me you'll realize that ehm I really like to talk, but don't worry, I'm a great listener too.

PHILOSOPHY

Seeing the world with open eyes, having an open mind towards everybody

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My house and my time are free to help people to get to know better the city where I live in.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I lived in Estonia for 10 months with the Erasmus Programme. During this period I made a lot of friends from different countries and, when we came back home, we started to visit each others. Some of them came to visit me in Milan and I did the same, having the possibility to visit many fantastic places. So in a way, I had a little Couch Surfing on my own, before getting to know the real one.
For me if it is a tent, a bed, a couch, a sleeping bag on the ground are all nice ways to surf as long as the company is great!
