CURRENT MISSION

Laugh. Love. Learn.

ABOUT ME

I'm dynamic, sociable, and curious. I like travelling, meeting new people, and discovering other cultures (well, obviously, since I'm on CS :)). I've visited several countries in Europe and went to Africa twice. For some reason I tend to move to a new city every couple of years or so. Cities I have lived in so far: Bologna and Turin (Italy), Barcelona (Spain), and Vancouver (Canada). My current city is Toronto. Who knows where I'll be next! Things/places I really love: books, coffee, olives, swimming (especially in the Mediterranean), beaches, cooking with someone else, listening to music while cooking, bearded men, sunshine, good wine, travelling, Sardinia, watching movies at the theatre, dancing, libraries, whatever my grandma cooks, smiles, dogs, Barcelona, strangers who smile at you, festivals, colours, hugs, looking at photos, leaves falling, sending and receiving postcards, old theatres.

PHILOSOPHY

Be positive and never stop learning!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I both host and surf. I discovered CS around two years ago and loved it. I hope to do it more!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted people when I lived in Vancouver, BC, and always met very nice guests. I've couchsurfed in different cities of Canada and the States, and all experiences were great.
