About Me

I am 23 years old Italian master student currently at CMU in Pittsburgh for my master thesis. In the last two years I've been for one semester in France and for one in Switzerland. I speak Italian, English and a little bit of French. I am new in the country and on CS as well, but I really like to meet people from different cultures and spend time together. Despite being Italian, I am not really a chef, but I know the very basics of Italian kitchen, so I would be happy of preparing a meal for you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to visit new cities and know new people, as well as host someone and show some nice places I know. I am on CS because recently one of my roommates hosted two people for the week end and we spent some time together visiting Pittsburgh. It has been a very nice experience, and it's a unique opportunity to meet interesting people. I like to travel, and since it's my first time in US I would like to visit as many places as possible in my six month stay.

Interests

I like reading books, travelling, watching movies, sports and hanging out with friends and new people. I also like board and video games. Being Italian, I'm doomed to like European soccer, and when I have time I am used to follow some big matches.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love 60's to 90's rock music (Rolling Stones, Beatles, Queen,...). I love reading fantasy and sci-fi books. Among my favorite movies I would cite Cloud Atlas, Braveheart, The Gladiator and Inception.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been of one of the highest mountains in Italy, Monte Rosa. Ah, and I decided to come to the States for my master thesis :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I would be enthusiastic to teach some Italian words, as well as some receipts. I love to speak with people about almost any subject, so don't be shy, just talk ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a lot of stories and hopefully a nice weekend in a beautiful city. Once I will come back in Europe, I would be eager to host you during an Euro trip :)

Countries I’ve Visited

England, France, Germany, Hungary, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
