Well it's really nice being back on CS after 5 years!

Buondì! My name is Caterina, an Italian from Udine (Friuli Venezia Giulia). I'm working as a trainee lawyer, and always had a keen eye on social activism

I started using CS freshmen year as I was living on my own and had a lot of room.
My first experience was hosting a French couple who was attempting to travel the world only by hitchiking and couchsurfing. I was seriously impressed by the way they were managing their journey, so I got interested and host people until I moved.

Sadly I can't host anyone right now but I have beautiful memories of people who passed by!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So far I haven't been traveling that much, so I don't really know what I'd be looking for as a couchsurfer... On the other hand I love hosting people and making them comfortable, since traveling can be pretty challenging, despite being such a glorious human thing.

Interests

One of my biggest interests is community living. I like to study the processes and fenomena under communities and how they are affected by the changes of public spaces.

Music, Movies, and Books

Love music with a nice bass line and a strong beat!
Some of my fav songs are Andrea (F. De Andrè), Borders (M.I.A.), Starter (L. Dalla), Bloodflod pt. II (alt-j)

Books: memoirs of Hadrian (Yourcenar), Salvage the bones (Ward), House of Rust (Bajaber), the corrections (Franzen)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I turned 18 my friends bought me a ticket for a Sigur Ros concert in Linz, AT. They also gave me some money to buy another one for my ex boyfriend. Shortly after, we split up. For months I tried to sell the ticket. Eventually, the week before the concert I made up my mind, booked the train ticket for Linz and went to the concert on my own. All of this just a few days after the end of my final year exams! It was totally worth it.
