My name's Livia Degonda and I'm from Switzerland. I study at the college of education in Chur to become a primary school teacher.

My friends and family describe me as a respectful, reliable, helpful and warm-hearted person.
My classmates lovely called me "the mother of the class" because of my social and caring character ;) So cute!

I love to be outside in the nature. The most time of my life I've spent in the middle of the Swiss mountains. Although I love my home, I'm interested in exploring other parts of the world. My short stays abroad have been unforgettable and it aroused my desire to travel. My dream is to visit many countries and experience different cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd love to meet many people from all over the world! :) I like talking to people with different nationalities, cultures and languages. The experiences and lifestyles of other people inspire me and enriche my life. I wish to get the possibility to meet many kind people. So who wants to make my dream come true? :)

Interests

I love doing sports, for example biking, cross-country skiing, jogging, hiking. I absolutely love beeing outside in the nature and enjoy the scenery.
Another big passion is cooking: preparing lunch for friends, cooking a four-course meal for my family or baking a cake for a birthday party meeting friends - I simply love cooking, and of course eating ;)
My friends and my family are very important for me and therefore I like spending my free time with them.
