Hi everybody!

I am Elisabetta, and I am very glad I am starting to be part of this big community! I am a social person who likes to chat about everything, but especially art, ideas and personal experiences.
I lived most of my life in Italy, in the Milano area, then I moved to Bern, Switzerland, almost four years ago!
There I learned a lot about life and with this experience I'd like to move further!
I love to cook (desserts the most, I can prepare chocolate mousse or tiramisù for you!), play board games, pet cats, eat and drink together! My passions are a big part of my life: art and music mean a lot to me! My Bachelor and Master are in Fine Arts and Contemporary Arts Practice, so I could be defined an artist (we can discuss about it, not so sure about this definition!). I play the violin too, and I'd love to learn more about different music traditions! Lately I have done a few artistic projects between these disciplines, if you are curious I'd love to tell you more and to know more about your own projects ;)

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

Good traveling friends of mine told me how interesting their experiences were, and many people I truly appreciate are offering a place where to sleep too.
So... why not?
I believe in a better society based on trust and real personal exchanges, and this community is a great part in creating a future of understanding and sharing.
The specific fact that made me registered today is my need to visit Groningen, where I got accepted for my second master degree.
Have a taste of the city before starting the studies seems a good idea, right? XD

Movies: I am a boring movie lover, I always watch again and again the same few movies! (But, please, lets watch together new things!)
But I loved Interstellar. The movie I watched the most is the Secret Garden, such a sensitive and beautiful story :')

Music: metal and classical fan! Lately into Ancient Music (madrigals or gregorian chants). Lover of Tchaikovsky, Bach and Vivaldi!

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

The first thing that came to my mind could be censored, ups... Mmh, I swam in the Aare River when it would be better stay out!

Curating and organizing a series of art exhibitions, born from a vision and become reality! The process was absolutely incredibile for me!

Last but bot least: beat the egg whites until stiff with a fork!

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

Sharing my ideas about art, developing new perspectives and opinions, talking with new people! Said differently: mentoring your projects!
Society, mythology, representation and structure are magic words.
Violin (beginner understanding) and some little nerdy info about music.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

Long talks and a dinner, I love to cook for people! My passionate listening about your interesting stories.
Some hints about the Italian language (warning: I can go on forever, so please stop me!).
Some swiss chocolate when required ;)
