Hi I'm Juliette!

Originally from Minneapolis, Minnesota, I also lived in Paris for a year, San Francisco for 8 years, and now this is the 3rd summer I've lived in Italy for 6 months (Costiera Amalfitana, Dolomiti, Liguria, Chianti, Puglia, Basilicata).

My background is as a baker and cook, I've been working in this field since I was 18. Now during the summer I lead biking and hiking trips for the American company Backroads.

I love FOOD, so if you're kind enough to host me I will love to make you and your friends dinner :D And same goes if I'm ever able to host you :)

Salut! Je suis actuellement une guide touristique en Italie pour voyages en vélo et de randonnée, mais je travaille depuis toujours comme pâtissière :)

Ciao! Faccio la guida per viaggi in bici e di trekking in Italia, ma lavoro anche da sempre come pasticciera :)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

As a teen I did some trainhopping/ hitchhiking, and relied on the kindness of strangers often. Several years ago I hosted one father/ son duo so far through CS and it was lovely, plus I've stayed with a couple of people in nearby Stillwater, MN. Now that I travel more, I'm hoping to get back into the CS community!
