Hello! I'm Stefania and I live with my husband Jacopo in Vicoforte, a small town in Northwest Italy (Piedmont: a region famous for its wines!).
I'm a math and science teacher. Jacopo is a full-time writer and part-time employee.
I have a real passion for cooking and travelling, and I try to combine them too!
I'm not good with foreign languages, as English, but luckly Jacopo speaks it fluently!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people and to help one each other!

About movies... too many to make a list! Some directors I love: Woody Allen, Fellini, Sorrentino, Virzì, Inarritu, Coeh Brothers, Wes Anderson and Paul Thomas Anderson.

About books... too many again! I love Nikolai Gogol (short stories), Italo Calvino (Palomar), Dino Buzzati (short stories), Italo Svevo (La coscienza di Zeno), Luigi Pirandello (Sei personaggi in cerca d'autore e Il fu Mattia Pascal), Laurence Sterne (The life and opinions of Tristram Shandy), David Foster Wallace (The Broom of the System), George Saunders, A.
