About Me

I'm a curious girl, I love travelling, cultures and I love the amazing planet we are living in. I'm originally albanian, I grew up in the tuscany's sea side, then at 16 I desided to live 1 year in Russia (the best choose of my life). After that, I made some internships in Switzerland and New York and than...I moved to Liège, Belgium for a semester, Erasmus Program, where I shared the house with 3 guys from Morocco, France and Turkey (what an international house it was!!).
Now I'm courrently in Livorno, Italy, I'm working and sharing the appartment with my lovely Big Sis.
So ok..as you can see I love internationality! And if you also do so, your welcome in my place :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

I adore classical music (I was a ballet dancer in my short life), i like reggae, jazz and every song which lyric has a meaning, and I'm really curious about folk music.
Love photos, I have a reflex which is called "CanonIva" and a new entry...GoPro :p
My favourite book till now is One Hundred Years of Solitude by the great Garcia Marquez, and I like italian and russian literature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Drinking vodka on the streets during the white nights in St Petersburg
- Lost a spare wheel in a funny way
- I crossed the border between Mexico-Guatemala alone by bus, from Comitan to Panajachel
- Went from Liege (Belgium) to Maastrich (Netherlands) by bike, on the way back my bike broke in the middle of the bridge almost at 15 km far from Liege and it started to rain so badly..
- Lost my fly from Porto to Valencia because of a f****g molho francesinha

Teach, Learn, Share

I love sharing experinces, cultures and I totaly think that every one can teach me something about this life! I can teach you how to say cheers in all the languages that I know :P I'll show you how hospitable are albanian people, how to cook italian food and how to drink as a russian/belgian.
