About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Growing up ;)

ABOUT ME

Graduated in Linguistic at La Sapienza University in Rome, I moved back home for my postgraduate course and I'm now studying in Pisa.
I love reading, watching movies, spending time with my little brother, hanging our with my friends, running, cooking and, of course, travelling!

PHILOSOPHY

My mum is from Rome, my dad from Calabria, my granparents were from La Spezia, Turin and Sicily: sharing our cultures, costumes and traditions with the others and learning one from the other is my life-style. I think that if we all broke barriers between countries, the world would be a better place to live in.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My family and I try to give people a comfortable place to stay, giving travellers of all ages, ethnicities and genders the possibility to see our beautiful country not through the words of a guidebook, but through the eyes and ears of local people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Great fantastic people: learnt something new from everyone we hosted!

Interests

I love to travel, of course: with friends, family and, sometimes, on my own. I'd like to discover Europe (pretty ignorant about the East :-() but my biggest dream is to travel around South America and see Jerusalem.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in London on my own for a year: great experience, great city. And being the big sis!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to teach Italian Language and Literature: think it's marvellous. I can teach you how to make your own jewellery or to cook beautiful tiramisù;)
As for learning, one of my dreams is to be able, one day, to speak Hebrew. Is there anyone who could teach me?
