Hi, I'm Ila, a quiet, curious girl that grew up in the suburbs of Milan.

While I've never been the typical adventurous type, I try and challenge myself to just jump cold-turkey into scary, uncertain things as much as I can. The best things happen when you give yourself a good kick in the ass.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I first registered when I was saying as au-pair in Germany, and I wanted to take advantage of my stay by visiting as many cities as I could. I had never taken part in something so adventurous as living in a completely foreign country and travelling all by myself, but it turned out to be great!!

My favourite thing about the couchsurfing experience is that you really get to live and see the best parts of a city; the ones that the locals love.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love folk music, every dancy song that says "80's!", trashy British rom-coms, horror books and every literature classic. I don't think there can be anything more inspiring to an adult than children books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I survived reading Moby Dick from start to end. That was quite a challenge.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe in working hard each and every day to become the good, caring person everyone should aspire to be. I also believe that you can only improve through other people.
Everyone has a story worth listening to and learning from.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I tend do be very analytic, which makes me a pretty good advice-giving friend
