Hello couchsurfers from all over the world! I'm Irene and I live in Italy, Padova precisely, where I am a dance teacher. I love books, sport like climbing, dance of course and fitness. I like to travel in cultural cities, try new things, meeting new people, speaking english to test my self, going to museums and concerts. I like listen to Billie Holiday while sipping some tea, my dog on my laps, reading a book and at the same time watching a British tv serie. Basically I'm an old lady :D my life is based on the danish concept of HYGGE <3

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling and I think that visiting countries makes you richer and visiting countries with locals make you no more a tourist but an explorer. I'm a friendly and enthusiasthic person and you can find a true friend in me. I'm new in Couchsurfing.com so give me a chance to see this wide and amazing world! <3
