I am a super curious, open-minded, ironic and hyperactive italian.
I grew up in a small town near Trieste, near to the Slovenian Border. I studied Political Science in Trieste, Rome and in Madrid (Spain). Thats were I discovered how cool is learning new languages and meeting new people from around the world.
In 2015 I moved to Brussels to work in EU Affairs. I lived 1 year and half in the Belgian Capital, enjoying beers and belgian frites.
At the moment I am in Trieste for the summer, deciding what to do next.. Maybe another country?? :) We will see :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really like to know people from all over the world and to enrich my infinite curiosity.
