Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After my first experiences, either hosting and being hosted, Couchsurfing seems to me as the best chance one has to experience every trip: walking around the city or in the wilderness, Summer or Winter, I really have appreciated every opportunity I was given. It's an effective tool to create more bonds

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

I love pop, alternative, chamber, electronic, instrumental and other genres.

My favorite artists/bands are Fazerdaze, HAIM, Francesca Michielin, Lana del Rey, Florence + the Machine, The Cranberries, Cigarettes After Sex, Britney Spears...

I'm interested in classical literature: Homer, Virgil, Sophocles, Theocritus, Ovid, Tibullus, Cicero, Statius. But it gets wider and wider then. From medieval to contemporary authors, I read Dante, Boccaccio, Marlow, Shakespeare, Camões, Flaubert, Goethe, Virginia Woolf, F. S. Fitzgerald, Auden and many others.

I was in Amsterdam alone for a few days before New Year's eve and it was the first time I was all by myself abroad and the feeling is indescribable and so great.
