About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finish at least one book by Dostoievski

ABOUT ME

I am an Italian-English-French girl, I work in the field of human rights in France (previously in Switzerland and in The Netherlands). I speak German and Spanish as well and would love to learn Russian one day.
Being French, I am sarcastic; being English, I am polite and considerate; being Italian, I am emotional and talkative. I probably come across as very all-over-the-place but I think I am quite trustworthy.
I love cooking for other people, some simple, fresh and cheerful Italian recipe that can be made for 3 or for 30.
I enjoy any kind of conversation, especially around a bottle of wine (though a sunny terrace or a comfy couch will do as well)

PHILOSOPHY

Give yourself some time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For a long time I could not host because I was always on the move and living in shared flats. I have been hosted by a number of trustworthy and fascinating people across Europe, and now at long last I can host too!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

On a mattress in a small living room in Gloucester, then in a huge en-suite bedroom in Lisbon, then in a self-built house in Dublin. Lately in a dubiously promiscuous flat in Switzerland. And a proud member of the Bern community for a year!

Interests

Traveling in a hectic, play-it-by-ear way
Meeting people in weird situations (supermarket waiting lines, sunny benches, train strikes...)
Nonsensical conversations where the game is not to laugh at the nonsense first - I often loose
Women's Human Rights -cf job
Flowers
Colourful shoes and retro dresses
Speculoos and earl grey tea

Music, Movies, and Books

Too long -you'll be bored before I start! But if you get to meet me I'd be happy to discuss any of the three.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've got everything to learn!! The weirder, the better.
I am not a very good teacher because I am too talkative to explain things properly, but I can try...
