Overview
About Me
I am an easygoing Italian living in Amsterdam, working online as italian teacher.
Living in a city and in a cold climate it does not bring me joy anymore, any excuse is good to escape the grayness and spend the winter in south Europe or any warmer climate🌱where i am sure one day i will be back.
When i can, I learn about sustainable food systems permaculture, bio construction, ecology, medicinal and edible plants etc. I am also a creative person and i like to sew, knit and dye with plants.
I am not vegetarian or vegan but i eat mainly fruit and vegetables 🌱
In 2019 I joined a food coop as active member and consumer to promote heathy, local and seasonal food habits.
I am social and curious and people around me say i am centered, i do not know if it's true but i feel there is always space for improvement.
I traveled in Lebanon, Peru, Norway, UK, France, Spain, Portugal, Hungary, Morocco, Sweden, Germany, Belgium
I lived in The netherlands, Spain, France, UK and Norway
PHILOSOPHY
You attract the right things when you have a sense of who you are. - Amy Poehler .
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Meet different kind of people and discover that we can be similar and united even with little in common.
When I visit a place for a short time, i prefer to meet locals and be part of their daily life and neighbourhood rather than visit museum.
Interests
I am interested in many things all in the sphere of sustainability, gardening, food and creativity.

Teach, Learn, Share
I'd like to practice Portuguese and Arabic.
I can teach you Italian, how to cook with seasonal and local produce with a mediterranean accent.

If you need a pair of extra hands in gardening, organizing a community event, walk the dog, are things I can do to get involved a little in your life and get to know your neighborhood.
