About Me

I'm a recent graduate of the University of Verona, excited about meeting people from all over the world and collecting experiences. Before focusing full time on my career, I decided to take some time off and getting lost in the world. It has always been my dream to travel with a backpack and have the freedom to move when and how I want. This seemed like the right time to make this dream come true.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe is a great way to travel on a budget but most importantly to build genuine relationships. The sincere sharing of experiences, way of thinking, languages and culture is an incredible opportunity for enrichment.

Interests

I'm a really curious person who loves learning, meeting people with different backgrounds and sharing experiences. I like to rest by listening to music or reading a book but at the same time I'm really active, always ready to go out for a walk or hike. I love swimming, diving, surfing (still need to work on it) and every activity related to the sea and the ocean.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don’t have specific taste in term of books and movies. The last book I really liked was “Narcissus and Goldmund” by Herman Hesse. Talking about movies I can highly recommend “The eight mountains” inspired by the book of the same title by Paolo Cognetti (loved it!).
I listen to any kind of music, depends on the situation (and mood) I am in (from pop, to indie to electronic to classical).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Packed my backpack and travelled solo on the other side of the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share all my life experiences as well as cook a really good Italian risotto :)
