About Me

I was born and raised in Rome but I've been traveling a lot since I was a child.
I'm studying Medicine and Surgery in "La Sapienza - University of Rome" and next year I'm planning to do Erasmus

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to get in touch with people living all over the world, since I think it's the best way to understand who we really are and expand my mind.
Knowing people in many country is a way to create a network of human beings who share their culture and values with interest an respect.

Interests

I'm a student in Medicine and Surgery, so most of my (everyday) life is occupied by books and people.
Nevertheless, I really love traveling (mainly in different places from western countries) and taking pictures of what I see. Whenever I travel I try to report the hidden realities I face using my camera (if you like, check out some of my pictures: https://www.flickr.com/photos/133022521@N08/).
I like to understand the world in the deepest way I can, not just stopping to the surface.
I'm fond of trekking, free climbing (unfortunately I'm not as much a great climber as I'd like to) and any outdoor activity.
I like going to concerts, arts exhibitions, movies, plays.
