Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Always look on the bright side of life
Currently living and working in Warsaw, probably temporarily , we'll see.
ABOUT ME
I'm a language teacher.
Tolerant, often overexcited and curious of everything (places, views, experiences) and everyone (views, passions). Abstract and dirty humour admirer, good friend, atheist, bookophile, feminist, coffee addict LGBTQ culture lover and supporter. I love cycling. I cant stand corpo talk and couching bullshit.
I've spent last 5 years of my life in Sardinia, an Italian island which amazed and fascinated me more and more every day. I was working as a tourist guide there and I honesty think this is one of the best jobs in the world. With my friends we founded Free Tours Cagliari, the first free walking tour in Sardinia.
I love sharing the adventure of meeting new people and new places: this is what couch surfing is about and I am always happy and grateful if you want to share your time with me and even happier if you want to show me around your city. At the same time I am very independent traveller and I can adjust perfectly to your schedule.
PHILOSOPHY
'You were born so you are free. So happy birthday!'
Enjoy the ride, not the destination.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Please, do not send me automatic message, I understand the difficulties of traveling sometimes, but make a little effort. It seems a minimum to me. It shouldn't be a problem since I don't accept last minute requests.
Neither text me if you treat CS as a hostel. All the rest is welcome and you can be as weird and crazy as you want to:)
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've been mostly surfing during last years and I am extremely grateful to all the amazing people who hosted me.
I live with my boyfriend now, we are both happy to welcome you in our place.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Awesome! I had a chance and luck to meet many extraordinarily insane people.
Interests
Travelling, life gets hard with no ticket booked. Languages, literature, music, films, drawing, writing. The last two mostly for therapeutical purposes.
Enjoying & collecting experiences. Making the same mistakes all the time, I should probably do a degree on that.

Language exchange.
PLEASE NOTE:
I've had few bad experiences especially with people who think Couch Surfing is a dating site. I'm a girl often travelling alone and having a lot of faith in humanity, and generally curious of people but I'm not searching for a dating opportunity. If you accept my request only in order to take advantage of having a girl sleeping under the same roof, don't waste neither your nor my time and do not accept my request/don't send me a request.
