I am studying engineering currently to apply core engineering principles to better the life of those around me. I am extremely interested in sustainable development because I truly believe that the longer we ignore the problem of climate change the less of a chance there is of beautiful wilderness that I have not had the chance of exploring yet not existing for much longer and NEVER having the chance to explore it! How sad is that. Sad enough that I’ve built all my life motives around it. Which leads me to two options: do something meaningful with my life, or explore every beautiful place on earth before it or I die.

I believe every conflict can be resolved through communicating with mutual open minds, and that the biggest problem with our world is the lack there of. I believe I owe a lot to my parents, to believe in love instead of war, and that those like me who have the privilege of growing up not having to worry about basic human necessities should use that gift to help those who don’t. Finally I believe I have a love for cooking that probably stems from my Italian background as much as it does from natural interest 😅.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing to meet people with similar interests as mine but with completely different backgrounds. I will be honest and say that what initially brought me was the prospect of sharing accommodations is a magnificent use of media which provides an incomparable service to both the guest and host, but what made me stay was how helpful the community is.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Built a hydroponic grow wall entirely DIY

Teach, Learn, Share

Love to learn through experience, and experiences are always more memorable then done with a friend.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Hosting a complete stranger can be scary at times and a lot of work. To lessen that work I bring groceries and cook for anyone that’s gracious enough to lend me a couch for the night 😊

I am very tidy and respectful thanks to my upbringing.

Finally my engineering background means I could try and fix anything that’s broken in your house
