About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To promote positive change and personal improvement

ABOUT ME

I am a world traveller and I have lived abroad for almost ten years. I have recently returned to Turin where I teach English privately. I am the founder of Caffé Poliglotta Torino, an informal gathering open to people of all ages and nationalities who wish to improve their language skills whilst making new friends. I love organising international evenings where people can meet and communicate in various languages. It's a new, exciting and challenging experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I take part to the Wednesday meetings held in Turin. I am about to go on my first couchsurfing travel experience in Paris if I manage to find a host!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet but I'm going to Paris in May and I think I will couchsurf then!

Interests

I love travelling, meeting people from different cultures, baking bread, speaking French, drawing, singing, sunbathing in the French Riviera, taking walks in nature, hiking in the mountain, eating good food and drinking with good friends, walking barefoot and so much more. I enjoy all things beautiful and simple. I'm very much in love with New Zealand and hope to go back there one day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Arriving in the Red Centre and seeing Uluru appering in the distance.
