I am Alex, a 20-year-old, fun-loving extrovert open to all experiences life has to offer. I enjoy learning and understanding new cultures, spend a lot of time reading, and strumming new tunes on my guitar. I grew up in India and later moved to Rome to complete my undegrad. I am a social animal and enjoys company even though at times I prefer living in my own thoughts.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My friends introduced me to CS and being a person who loves travelling in local footsteps I felt it would be the perfect place to meet local people, connect and learn more about their lifestyle and culture while sharing my experiences.

Interests

I love watching thrillers while other genres also end up on my list. My biggest passion is to meet different people and learning more about their cultures and languages. Sometimes I think way too much about stuff so if you're up for long convos count me in :)

• movies
• reading
• sports
• philosophy
• travelling and meeting new people

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a lot of German and Italian music, mostly rap. But i also enjoy other genres as well like indie or rock. I'm pretty diverse in my tastes. When it comes to books and movies I'm more of a person who loves to take in something into my life from what I have read or seen.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done a solo backpack trip through Germany when I was 18, met amazing people and had lots of fun. It turned out to be one of the best experiences I've ever had in my entire life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some of the languages I know and would also love to learn something from your culture or experiences. I'm a pretty bad cook so I'm always trying to improve. Anyone who's up to helpe on that front is always welcome!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer some of my sense of humour. I'm a human being who's up for almost everything, whether it be long talks or a chill evening to an entire weekend of non-stop clubbing. I have a million stories to share from my life most of which are from different parts of the world I've lived in and so naturally most of my friends are usually intrigued by some. So you might be in for some surprises or cultural shocks as well ;)
