ABOUT ME

A little weird. Funny. Quiet. Kind. Free-spirited. Easy-going. Then again these are things which people frame me in but how we assume ourselves and how people frame others is a completely different thing :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed a few times, once in Marrakech, another time in Bali...and my last one in Melbourne. Each experience has been so different and admiring. Once, I even couchsurfed and I met my future house-mate. We flow, like water, and within it you meet such extraordinary people. Some people stay some people go some you will never forget. I'm not saying couchsurfing is easy but its definitely much more worthwhile than staying in a hotel. One should even couchsurf in their home town! Its a great way of connecting and becoming part of a community. This is important, community, we have forgotten so much of it so why not go back to it? Lets exchange and share and be harmonious. Happy Travels everyone!

Interests

Cereal and breakfasts altogether. Favourite time and meal of the day.
Colourful and unmatching socks.
Scaffoldings.
Cycling/ Critical Mass.
Reducing Food Waste/ Skipping/Anthropology of Food.
Consolidating communities/ Sustainable Education

Travelling most of all. I love how you meet people by chance. I love how they can change you, mould you and perhaps redirect you into a different path altogether.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I believe that the ordinary day leaves you awestruck. We forget how extraordinary the ordinary is. Travelling makes us realise how beautiful the 'day' actually is, yet i think that even the 'day' within our quotidian life is beautiful. We all do amazing things everyday.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to teach you English or Italian in exchange for a few recipes or a walk through your city.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook a few Italian dishes and I'm always happy to cook a meal for all of us. I can share a meditation techniques, some yoga poses, books, music, movies, experiences and late night conversations
