Overview
About Me
I grew up and studied Maths in Italy. I then trained as a teacher in the UK. I then finally moved to Madrid (Spain) where I currently live and teach Maths in a British secondary school.
I am open minded and respectful. I like good conversations and I like meeting people that give you different perspectives. I like making friends.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love traveling and meeting people while traveling. I met great people hosting and being hosted.
Interests
I love going to the theater and I have been part of an amateur acting group for 4 years.
If I had more free time, I'd use it to take dancing classes. I also love singing.
I love learning history and culture of other countries by traveling.
