ABOUT ME
I'm an out-going girl, who really enjoys making friends and discovering new cultures. Since I've been in China during my (sweet) 16, I experienced the amazing pleasure to meet new people, new societies and new cultures often really different from my own. In China I studied in a local high school and I was hosted by a chinese family, who gradually became as import as my real one. Thanks to this, when I travel my first aim is always to be completely surrounded by the culture and the true living country I'm visiting. I love people, art, music, debates, learning and teaching. I am always open to learn anything new that I don't know, don't matter from when, where, how and who it comes from.
PHILOSOPHY
A-ehm.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I'm a newbie!
Interests
Music, any kind, from tradional (much appreciated) to sperimental. Mostly rock/indie.Photography: my muse. Images that can express a thousand words, make you cry and smile at a first sight.Reading books, academic and fictions, as long as they have a deep meaning behind written words. A bridge to Terabithia was the first book I read and that made me sincerely cry. Cannot forget it.Art. I love art. Couldn't live without it, especially modern art: is the true expression of the being itself and of mankind.Travelling: I don't understand how people can live without either travelling or virtually visiting, through the friendship of foreigners.China: I'd be a completely different person without this life-changing experience. I owe China much more than I can possibly think.I love partying, I love wander around, walk, discover, see the world and meet new people.
