Hello!! I'm Sara, 35 years old from Florence! I am a psychologist and I love to travel, visit in new places and meet new people! Most of my life I have lived in Florence, but I have also lived in Rome, Barcelona, ​​Madrid. Then I lived one year in Ecuador, where I worked in a shelter for battered women and then backpacked for a few months in Colombia! Then I lived in Bolivia for a year doing another volunteer project, then again Colombia, Italy during Covid and I have been in Iraq for 6 months with Medecins sans frontieres. Soon I return to Italy and go on vacation!!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I backpacked in South America 5 years ago and it was my first time couchserfing. I think it's a great way to travel because it's cheap and allows you to meet local people, which for me is the best way to get to know the culture of a country, go in the tipical places and really enjoy the trip! During my travel in Colombia I found out that people often help and support you just to help you, and this seems incredible to me. And now I am sure that when you give, what you have given somehow always comes back to you. I had really good experiences with couchserfing! unfortunately I currently cannot host travelers (thee few time I stay in Florence I live in my mother's house), but I am available for any information and to go out and get to know my beautiful city!

Interests

Me encanta viajar más que todo! Conocer nueva gente, nuevas culturas y lugares. Adoro la naturaleza, pasear por montañas y el mar, pero también la arquitectura y los museos. Me gusta muchísimo escuchar música, cualquier tipo, y bailar! En Italia sobretodo música tekno, electrónica, pero también reggaetón, cumbia y salsa. Me encanta leer un buen libro y ver películas, sobretodo las que me enseñan algo. Y claramente, como buena italiana, AMO cocinar, comer y tomar buen vino!! :)
