About Me

Italy-born, I spent a lot of time in London where I worked in the music business.

I then hit my 30s and decided to quit everything (especially adulthood) and, at the beginning of 2017, decided to go travelling around the world and discover what's really out there.

Travelling got me totally obsessed with surf.
I also have interest in everything sea-related, the environment, animals, philosophy, yoga, meditation, horse riding and meeting new people and make new discoveries! I love food and love cooking for my hosts, like a true Italian woman ;)

Always open to meet new people and share experiences, and life stories.

I am safe, reliable, friendly and tidy. I can help with anything around the house, teach languages, give advice or simply be a friend :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet up new people from around the world and have a better, more authentic traveling experience.

To help out with anything and make new friends.
