CURRENT MISSION

trying to make this world a lil bit better

ABOUT ME

Life is to short...I knew it before but my recent experiences have just confirmed it: seing people disapperaing all around me really helped me to realize how our presence on this earth is short!
SO...I was already used to do it, but now I'm putting more efforts into i: I'm travelling, exploring the world, meeting new people, discovering new cultures, being curious, learning new languages to communicate, going beyond the first impression and the "clichés".
Besides, I consider myself as privileged, and dont accept the differences between humans.
I strongly believe we can all play a role, even small, in this world. And we can all try to stand for this!

PHILOSOPHY

live the life you want to live, as soon as it doesn't hurt anybody or cause any irreparable damages.
never give up
where there is a will, there is a way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm working in humanitarian fields, trying to fill the gap and differences between human being.
I'm travelling loads, talking to people, sharing with them.
I've been and I'm still involved in local associations,in different fields (social, local development,...)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Actually, I've always been doing couchsurfing, without being registered on any website, but in a more non formal way, as it came out, in South America and in Europe (Austria, Germany, Italy, Spain,...)

Interests

travelling (is that surprising??!!), learning new languages, cooking for my guests (and creating!), doing sport (martial arts, climbing, bicycle, trekking, snowboard) and testing new sports, mainly outdoors, reading books, movies, live music, organizing aperitivs and parties, especially at the last minute (improvisation!),art exhibitions (famous artists or not...keeping in mind that being touched by the art piece is what matters the most)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed on the top of an active vulcano (in Sicily), which got into eruption!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my passion for languages. And my passion for cooking. Especially since I discovered my allergies in 2010, I explored the world of new recipes mainly gluten free! I started to write all the recipes we created with my boyfriend in my notebook. My friends and family love to discover our creations.
