CURRENT MISSION

Eat and drink my way around the world.

ABOUT ME

I love to travel and see the world, when I'm back in London I am always thinking of where to go next.
One of my favorite writers is Jack kerouac he was a man who felt at home when he was on the road I try to following in his footsteps. I am a cine-file and love to talk old films (Jean Luc Godard) to new films (Hayao Miyazaki)
I work as a photographer it is something I have always been interested in, I think being creative is very important.
I am a Animal lover and care a great deal for Animal welfare around the world, Also I am a crazy cat person they are my favorite I have four cats at my family home.

Hoping to meet people who are friendly and welcoming just like myself on my journeys.

PHILOSOPHY

feel free and don't let other people effect you views, be strong in your decisions and believe in yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well I Have met lots of great people through Couchsurfing and hope to continue surfing and having fun around the world. I am always talking about my travels and all the amazing people I have met.
I also regularly attend various Couchsurfing events around London and create and arrange my own events which are always a great way to meet new friends.
I think this quote below sums up my thoughts and feelings towards Couchsurfing.

( Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend. ) ~ Albert Camus

Interests

Food is a big part of my life I have a huge interest in cuisine from all over the world, living in London I have the opportunity to enjoy so many different types of food which makes me very happy, I love all thing spicy I can eat very hot food and love to experience all types of exciting dishes.

I also appeared on the television on a cooking program called Dinner Date I can tell you more about that when we meet :)
I think I am a good cook being half Italian it feels natural to me as long as there is a bottle of wine close to me.
