Native New Yorker (mom from Sicily, dad from Brasil). I’ve been living in Milan for the last 4 years. This month starts my 5th year. I speak English, Italian, Brasilian Portuguese and Caribbean Spanish. I love to travel and love to host guests, so I thought I would give couch surfing a try.

Salve a tutti! Sono Ashley di NY, ma abito a Milano da 4 anni. Mia mamma è siciliana e mio padre è brasiliano ma io sono nata e cresciuta a Manhattan. Sono cittadina Americana, qua in italia facendo un altro master e la mia cittadinanza italiana. Parlo inglese, italiano, portoghese brasiliano e spagnolo caraibico.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Vorrei viaggiare di più, conoscere persone nuove ed adoro gli ospiti a casa mia e cucino da morire 😋

I’d like to travel more and meet new people. I love hosting and I’m an amazing cook!

Music, Movies, and Books

Samba, Salsa, Bachata, Merengue, tutto 💃

Non puoi dire che hai visto un film Tarantino se lo hai visto doppiato! È come disegno su una Picasso con i pennarelli 🤦🏻‍♀️.

Mostly English books. Paulo Coelho & Salinger are some of my favorite authors, but my favorite book is Down These Mean Streets by Piri Thomas.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ho cambiato la gomma di un Range Rover alle 2 del mattino con i tacchi per strada da sola in un vestito cocktail 😂.

I’ve changed the tire on a Range Rover at 2am on the highway in stilettos and a cocktail dress alone 💪🏼

Teach, Learn, Share

Posso insegnarti Inglese, sono madrelingua. I can help you with English or Italian.

What I Can Share with Hosts

C’è un armadio libero, Wi-Fi, TV, Posso darti consiglio per dove andare a mangiare bene, risparmiare soldi ed ho un programma flessibile, quindi posso accompagnarti fuori se vuoi. Se preferisci, posso farti un buon pasto, insegnarti inglese, come ballare salsa e samba.

There’s a large, empty wardrobe for guests, fresh linens, a sofa bed in the living room in a renovated apartment in one of Milan’s most beautiful neighborhoods, in the historic center. I offer Wi-Fi, Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Showtime. I’m a great cook, and will gladly cook for you if you like. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I am available to either help you plan out your visit, or even go along with you.
