I'm an interpreter and I teach Italian to foreigners. I love meeting people from all over the world, so feel free to contact me if you come to my beloved Bologna and would like to spend some time with a local! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm an Italian translator and interpreter and I've always loved travelling, practicing the languages I already knew, learning new words in languages I do not know, and meeting people from different countries. I get bored if I stay in the same place for too long, and I almost have a physiological need to see new places every now and then!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going to Liège for a 9-month EVS, but ending up spending all my free time in Leuven, to organize an international camp for visually impaired people! Time is really what you make of it!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to help people practice Italian, if they already know it, or learning some basics. Also, I'd love to practice the languages I already know with native speakers!

What I Can Share with Hosts

My knowledge of Italian and the other languages. A lot of interesting stories, anecdotes and humor. I'm a pretty good listener and lively speaker!
