About Me

[[[I'm sorry if this may not be the coolest and completest description you've seen around but I realized life it's too short to re-write it completely from the first moment I did it!
Anyway don't worry: I'm the same as I was, maybe a little nicer, and my english improved pretty much from those days!]]]

I'm an italian-brazilian student.
I've lived for almost my whole life in Milan, and I'm now getting my master degree on Psychology in Bologna: despite I spend most of my time here (and find it an amazing city to live and study in), I usually come back to the one I consider my proper city, 2 times per month more or less!
Finally, from february to june 2019, I had an exchange time in São Paulo, Brazil. This made me know my country better than I ever did: I travelled for plenty months from the deep south till the middle of the Amazon forest, and living there for the first time I could meet a lot of good friends and backpackers.

I see myself as an empathic and hilarious person, love to discovery new things and keep trying to live my life as crazily and freely as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel. I think that's one of the best opportunities offered by the times we live in, and I find amazing anything which offers you the possibility of increasing the number of trips and helps you to make them in an easier way.
So the idea behind Couchsurfing follows perfectly in this philosophy and allows people to share not only places to stay in, but also, and over all, experiences, stories and emotions that you wouldn't have that easily paying for an hotel.
That's why I strongly trust in this new way of travelling, and why I've taken completely part on it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The tour of Cuba, an unique experience which literally changed the way I see the world and go on with my life.
And, of course, one year-long Erasmus in Porto, which from that time had become my second, beloved house.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will be pleased to share a place to stay for some days with all young people like me - so I would ask you to not send me any request if the gap between our ages is too big -, who enjoy traveling and feeling the unique experiences you can get from it.
If it is into my possibilities, I'd be happy to go with you in a tour of my city (Milan-Bologna) and give you the best suggestion about what it has to offer.
To people who agrees in hosting me where I travel, I can offer a little help at home, very good meals and the best from my personality!
