About Me

My passion for life, traveling, getting to know new people, exploring other cultures, trying new things brought me to Couchsurfing.

I'm passionate about people, exploring our minds, and figuring out who we are, why we do what we do and how we can enjoy our lives more! This interest brought me to the idea of studying psychology. I used to work in Human Resources. Now as a part of my Master in Health and Social Psychology I do a research internship in Surabaya, Indonesia.

I'm keen on learning new languages (so far I've been studying English, Italian, Spanish, and now sedikit bahasa Inonesian) and learning about new cultures and experiencing them while living in different countries. I used to live in Italy, the Netherlands and now Indonesia.

In everyday life, I sometimes can be lazy, the other times crazy and hyperactive, but I try to do my best to be a good person, treat others with respect, and in the case of CS be a great host and guest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

“Mystery is not about traveling to new places but about looking with new eyes.” Marcel Proust
There is no better way to discover new places than to do it through the eyes of local people.

Interests

- a bit of everything, as I like changes, exploring and trying new things from Improvisational theater, automassage, to yoga, horse riding, and parachuting.
- Sport. I am not super sporty but I cannot sit still for too long either. I am recently into bouldering/climbing and ultimate frisbee (I was also surprised there are actually rules behind it). I would like to get more advanced in water sports. Planning on taking some surfing and diving lessons while in Indonesia
- Social causes. I want to do something meaningful and helpful. I was a member of a student NGO - AEGEE for a few years.
- Fooooood. Eating & cooking.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to simply share my time with you, and information about me and my culture. I am interested in getting to know you, your perspective on life, or any stories you feel like sharing. I am a good listener! I enjoy being inspired and inspiring others too.

I would love to learn more about the place you come from, about the things you are proud of and you would recommend seeing/trying in the area, or the aspects that annoy you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My positive attitude, open mind, personal and professional experiences.

Fun and craziness or peace and quiet depending on what do you expect from your guests.
