CURRENT MISSION

Explore the world as much as I can, leaving my footprints and taking photos.

ABOUT ME

Ciao! My name is Martina, I'm 24 and I'm from Italy. I live in Padova and I'm currently studying to become an intepreter. I'm studying English and Russian.
I like meeting new people from all over the world, trying to speak their languages that I don't know and teach them my language, italian, sharing our cultures.
I'm very (maybe too much) open minded and I try to be always positive and happy, but sometimes I'm not.
I like animals, music, concerts, vinyls, my biggest passion and the main reason why my wallet is always empty, tea and coffee (ony decaffeinated), reading newspapers and watching movies in foreign languages, swimming pools, sunbathing, white and dark chocolate, pasta, pizza, irish beer, Ireland, shopping, tattoos, driving, my iPod, dogs and animals in general, I believe they are way better than people, everything that's green and everything that's new.
I like getting involved in new things, always trying to see how far I can go.
Nothing can stop me!

PHILOSOPHY

The hardest part of ending is starting again

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sharing is caring, they say! I like the idea of helping someone that want to visit a place or a country offering a place where to sleep without asking money, just for kindness. It's a great way to make new friends, and they may also offer you a place to sleep if you'll ever visit their country!
I really love food, you know, I'm Italian (LOL) so if I'll host you I will appreciate if you'll bring me a typical (and delicious) food of your country!

Interests

I love travelling around the world as much as I can! Unfortunately I can't travel as much as I would like because I am a student, so I don't have all the money and the time that I need. I like meeting other people, from other countries, improving my language skills, going to music concerts, having fun!
I also like working with children, in fact I worked twice as aupair girl in Ireland and Germany.

Music, Movies, and Books

I watch movies only in their original language.
I love any kind of books except for science fiction.
I LOVE almost any kind of music, I prefer music with no words I'm sad or during my sleep and music with lyrics during the other moments. I prefer live music and if I could make a wish I would ask for illimitate money to spend in concerts and vinyls. And, of course, shoes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing places I've ever seen are in Ireland. The Cliffs of Moher are, to me, one of the most beautiful places in the world, breathtaking.

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't think of myself like someone who can teach something to other people, but I like the idea of people sharing their life together teaching and learning to each other.
