Overview
About Me
I was born in Rome and raised in Milan. I love conversations, politics, music and cinema. I studied Philosophy at "la Sapienza" University of Rome and I've been one year in Erasmus in Paris, and five months in Brazil studying philosophy of art... After I graduated, I worked in a hostel for one year and then I started a PhD in Rome about images and media technologies.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
People who join couchsurfing are always interesting people: I talked about everything, listened music from all of the world and tasted so many flavors!
I started hosting when I was living in Paris, to meet new people; then I've been traveling for a while and now that I'm back in my city and I'm living on my own I'd like to host again to keep on "traveling" just staying in Rome.
