Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I will be in Italia for the European Ecovillage Conference held in Tuscany (14-17 July). I think I will travel a little bit around before and after the conference :) I hope to discover some unknown places and nice people !
One of my objectives atm is to learn Italian again !! I learnt it for about ten years and then... I went to South America and replaced all the Italian I knew with Spanish.
ABOUT ME
Open minded, interested in discoveries of new cultures !
Looking for a better way of living. I like cities for their cultural effervescence (street art, concerts...) and small towns surrounded by nature.
PHILOSOPHY
Ready to go !
A lot of small gestures can change the world !
(i.e. : if every person helps his neighbors we will certainly get a better world, even if in the beginning you'll have the impression to do something very small and insignificant).
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I had my two first couchsurfing experiences in Belgium and my hosts were amazing ! I couldn't imagine a best way to start :) I traveled in South America with two friends and we had a blast everywhere we stay with CS (special mention for Ushuaia) !
CS offers the opportunity to discover a new city with the help of a locals ! For me it is the best way to travel because you'll see more interesting things (and hidden) than if you follow a touristic guide :)
Interests
I love dancing, eating (food is a key element in my life), painting, music festivals and concerts, art, watching movies...
A good book and a hammock can make my day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I drove 2.500 kms on my own in just a few days driving from sunrise to sunset under the burning sun of Australia.
I hitchhiked across Argentina from Buenos-Aires to Ushuaia (ruta 3) with two friends and it was amazing. The landscapes and people we met will stay for ever in my mind, it is the most incredible experience I've had so far. But the travel is going on...
Teach, Learn, Share
I think that every person in this world is interesting and can teach you things.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can cook for you even if sometimes the result is not as good as expected, haha. I think that with a recipe and perseverance everything is possible !
