I work in the humanitarian sector, currently having a break to find serenity in such a messy world. I lived for the last 5 years in the Middle East where I try to understand the complexity and the multiculturality of the region that often is not expressed in the main media. Discovering that human being are more similar than what expected, and that a cup of coffee is always a good start for any relation.

Born from an Italian mother and Portuguese father I have always felt home is not only in one place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What I loved more of discovering new places is meeting people and observing the daily life.
