ABOUT ME

I'm a nice and sunny person. I love art and what concerns culture in general, I love to watch old movie,.
My fist occupation (now) is sewing. I love tailoring and knitting, I like tricot and embroidery and I would like to make a job out of this passion.
I love cooking, expecially for others, and take care of the people around me. I love travelling and discovering new places but, above all, new cultures. I love the differences and a lot of weird stuff (like me). My life is a constat research.

PHILOSOPHY

When you set out on your journey to Ithaca,
pray that the road is long,
full of adventure, full of knowledge.
The Lestrygonians and the Cyclops,
the angry Poseidon -- do not fear them:
You will never find such as these on your path,
if your thoughts remain lofty, if a fine
emotion touches your spirit and your body.
The Lestrygonians and the Cyclops,
the fierce Poseidon you will never encounter,
if you do not carry them within your soul,
if your soul does not set them up before you.
Pray that the road is long.
That the summer mornings are many, when,
with such pleasure, with such joy
you will enter ports seen for the first time;
stop at Phoenician markets,
and purchase fine merchandise,
mother-of-pearl and coral, amber and ebony,
and sensual perfumes of all kinds,
as many sensual perfumes as you can;
visit many Egyptian cities,
to learn and learn from scholars.
Always keep Ithaca in your mind.
To arrive there is your ultimate goal.
But do not hurry the voyage at all.
It is better to let it last for many years;
and to anchor at the island when you are old,
rich with all you have gained on the way,
not expecting that Ithaca will offer you riches.
Ithaca has given you the beautiful voyage.
Without her you would have never set out on the road.
She has nothing more to give you.
And if you find her poor, Ithaca has not deceived you.
Wise as you have become, with so much experience,
you must already have understood what Ithacas mean.

"Ithaca, Costantino Cavafy"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've done couchsurfing in Paris and in Limoges with my boyfriend. I didn't have my own profil on CS but I liked it so much that I decided to do it on my own too.
I also met the man of my life, but he doesn't know it :D
