I am a student and student assistant at Leiden University where I study History and Italian, two things I am very passionate about. I am always interested in old interesting things!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to show people around in Leiden. Besides this I already need to travel around in Italy to do research for my master's thesis. While living in the Netherlands I have not been able to practice my Italian a lot on a daily basis. In Italy I hope to be able to do this!

Interests

I really like old stuff! But I want to learn new things as well.

• traveling
• history

Music, Movies, and Books

Reading is one of my favorite things to do. I especially like older literature (19th century and earlier). More recently I became interested in Italian poetry (Cavalcanti, Dante, Foscolo).
While reading I like to listen to classical music (I am not such an expert though). For other things I am a big fan of Muse! But there are also many other rock bands that I like.
