About Me

Hey there!

I don't really know what to say about me.
I was born in Italy, then travelled a few places, done a few things, met a few people. At the age of 18, I moved to the UK to study Social Anthropology at university. I enjoyed and hated it at the same time, but my degree left me with a desire to explore more and learn more. And this is where my passion for travelling comes from.
I gave up on many dreams at a very young age. I gave up on trying to understand where I belonged or where home was because I saw no point in wrapping myself around a flag that would never feel mine. So, here I am; a misfit, a weirdo, a lover. And a good listener.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I travel what I appreciate the most is experiencing the local way of life.
I am not interested in sipping cocktails in an aseptic hotel lounge. I seek for connections, experiences and adventure.

Interests

I used to play the guitar, but I am quite bad at it. I still enjoy music more than anything else.
I love travelling.
I enjoy meeting people in front of a good beer.
I am vegetarian for ethical and political reasons.

Music, Movies, and Books

Punk rock and ska music.
I enjoy books and movies which make me think. Art is not made to be nice, but to make you feel emotions, isn't it?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in a Rasta community in the middle of Ethiopia
Lived in a communist village in Southern Spain

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some Italian, but I don't really know who would be interested in that.

I am an extremely good cook, but, since I don't like showing off, let's just say I can cook!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am on my way to move out of Italy in order to study. I haven't hosted yet, but that's my goal once I will have my own apartment.
