Overview
About Me
I'm italian but I've been living in Australia for the past 3 years, since I met my partner Steven. We run a little urban farm and we are both very passionate about sustainable living.
I love cooking with fresh, local ingredients. I love medicinal plants and study shamanic herbalisim at the moment. I love learning new languages and living in different countries to fully immerse myself in a new culture.
I enjoy traditional crafts such as basket making, macrame, soap makin and so on.
At the moment I'm travelling through central and south America with destination Peruvian jungle to spend some times with a family of traditional healers.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I used to host a lot when I was back in Italy and loved it. I really enjoy to get to know like minded or different minded people to expand my knowledge and my points of view. I also like to help travellers have a wonderful experience of the city I'm living in, sharing home made food and taking them to less turistic parts of the city.
When I travel I like to connect with locals, to understand better the local culture, practice or learn the language and make new friends.
