*** Kindly read first the description of the accommodation I can provide in My Home section, just to be sure that we will be a good fit to each other ***

I prefer to host female (due to cultural reasons), but sometimes I make exceptions.

CURRENT MISSION

Having the world come to my couch!

ABOUT ME

I'm a bit shy on first encounters, but once I get to know people better, I can be crazy. I show my affections by teasing, so be patient with all my bantering and jokes.
I have too many hobbies, and sometimes I feel like I always have too much on my plate. But most of all, I love traveling and getting to know people from different cultures, dancing (esp. salsa and bachata), foreign languages, and creative writing --for this I also have a blog, mostly about my travel experience: https://tantitaliana.wordpress.com/

I love going out with friends, but I also need some time alone, just to contemplate or cuddle with a great book.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I travel to new places, I always appreciate the opportunities to explore with a local and get some inside insight about what I see---so I would love to do the same to others too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spending a year living in Italy to study the language and culture--after waiting for that opportunity for 14 years!--it was worth waiting and fighting for.

Getting an opportunity to be the liaison officer of the soccer team I've been cheering since I was a teenager, and just to be around them for a week!
