Had I to introduce myself and my origins, I would say that my heart is three-quarter southern-Italian including a good
amount of empathy, passion and enthusiasm, one quarter international looking for new ways to escape and discover all the time. What concerns bad sense of humour... idk where it comes from!

I've been living and working on the Greek island of Lesvos for the past 2 years, and it doesn't seem I'll ever get enough of Greek food. I'm obsessed with my dog who's also one of the reasons why I haven't left Greece yet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to travel more and meet new interesting people from all over the world. By visiting new places with some locals, I hope to see them from a more authentic point of view and to understand their traditions, way of living and culture.
