ABOUT ME
well... I'm a smiley person, and even though sometimes I'm very lazy (i love to sleep!) I usually spend my time going out with friends and doing lot of things during the week... and on holidays I always visit new places, to meet new people, enjoy different food (i'm a gourmand!) and all the traditions of other countries.
I'm graduating in a master in management for arts and culture, and I would like to start working soon with something related to creativity and urban settings, or cultural policies.
I love every kind of music and movies genres..don't ask me the 'favourite' questions because I never know how to answer!
I am a fan of cities. Even though sometimes I need to stay in a calm nature environment, urban landscapes inspire me the most
PHILOSOPHY
I'm looking for happiness through the love for small things. I don't have a real philosophy, I'm just trying to smile and to live things in the purest way as possible. I'm trying to open my mind and to live without prejudices: studying abroad for some months made me understand how stupid is to think in terms of cultural differences, even though differences exist.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm a member of CS since quite a long time but I had the chance to host only a few times, since I was leaving at my parent's house until a year ago. Even when I cannot host I like to meet people for a coffee and give them some nice tips in order to enjoy the best of my city.
I was hosted only twice, both times in weird locations: the backstage of a little theatre in San Francisco and the basement of a danish house :) I kind of liked that.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I hosted two canadian guys for some days some time ago, before leaving for San Diego. It was my first experience and we had a really great time together. I showed them some little places in Milan, the small things and the people I like of this city. I think couchsurfing is a great opportunity to see places from an insider perspective, knowing people who are living there.
I like to show people nice and secret spots they cannot find in tourist guides.
