About Me

Hi all
I'm an anglo american born and raised in italy who now lives in berlin, germany.
In berlin i'm an architecture student at the TU and work as as an italian as a foreign language teacher at the uni.
Free time is taken up with a variety of things (like with the most of us) but learning and exchanging about languages cultures places is definitely high on the list :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling and enjoy it more when i know someone who lives in the place i m going to or if i have a bit more time to spend there. Being with people who actually live in the place can change your perception of it completely!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I fished 10 € out of a canal (Landwehrkanal) after attempting with various different braches/methods. It was freezing so we ended up spending it straight away on some hot tea. Pls see pics for proof.
