Hi! My name is Selene, and I am from Italy. To celebrate my 28th birthday, I am making a solo trip to The Netherlands on a noble quest to find my next city to live in! Currently, I live and work in Milan as an environmental engineer, but I plan to relocate somewhere in Europe soon. Let's check the Dutch life first, then!

I will be around Amsterdam from 27-31 May, reconnect with some old friends and hopefully make new ones!
Do you think moving to The Netherlands is the most fabulous idea? Or would you like to save me from a future of disaster?
Let's keep in touch then!

Btw, are you a lindy hopper? Text me regardless, haha

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I want to meet people who can inspire me, share the thrill of crossing life paths for a while, and chat about anything, especially the things that make our lives beautiful and full of light!

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Engineering survivor, I have finally learnt to let go of the need to control time and space in real life. Now I simply dance with the flow!
