About Me

I do love new adventures, meeting different people, having interesting conversations, reading, travelling, knowing, dogs, swimming, music, science, arts, NATURE, hip-places..
By the time being I'm doing a PhD (go figure ;) in Sociology. It was not a straightforward choice as I love plenty of other things (biology for one) but I have always been curious to know about society and as it all works. Human beings are definitely extraordinarily complex, but amazing. That's one of the reasons I go by the rule: Live and let live

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet people from different backgrounds, learning from them and understanding different cultures. Couchsufing is a great way of doing that!
While hosting I intend to travel without moving, so please bring memorabilia (I would be particularly happy if you pinned something from your country/city on my refrigerator :)
As a host I am looking forward to get to know the place I'm visiting from the local's viewpoint.
