CURRENT MISSION

To promote freedom, trust and open-mindedness on life and people throughout the world

ABOUT ME

I'm a globetrotter of Italian and German origins, who has chosen Québec City as a permanent home, after travelling around Europe and North America for about 4 years.

PHILOSOPHY

Never stop learning, always try to do your best, be able to forgive. Be happy and make other people happy. Love your children more than yourself and anybody else.
My motto is : The sky is your limit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a few couchsurfers from Europe and Australia in the past, but I'm now less active. When I travelled around Italy with my boyfriend in 2008, I experienced being hosted by 3 wonderful people, who showed me the other side of the medal.
