ABOUT ME

I'm 25 and I began traveling with my family as a kid. I lived in Spain for a year at 16. Currently in Rome for Masters program. I really enjoy languages and the doors they open to learn new cultures, meet new people, and much more. I speak three languages and will get to five soon enough.

PHILOSOPHY

Take risks: If you win you will be happy; If you lose you will be wise.

Dreams don't work unless you do

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host people when I can in Rome. I prefer to host people that are open to reciprocating in their home city. I'm a great host so you'll be looking forward to me coming to visit you! Hopefully you come from a place I haven't yet been, not a must though.

My apartment is not a hostel!!

So, therefore;
1) Send me only a CS request if you have good references, pictures, and if you are a nice, social, clean and polite person (shouldn't be too much to ask for?)
2) If you are outgoing, independent, interesting, and can take care of yourself.
3) Please do not send me copy/paste couchrequests. They will be most likely declined. Put some effort into it, I wonder why you chose me as the host and what would make me want to host you.

And, last but not least I'd really appreciate if you could bring something from your home town or token from your travels.. it's up to you... :-)))

Interests

Improve myself in all different facets of life b/c when you stop challenging yourself you might as well be dead.
