Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Enjoy this world trying as much as i can to make it a better place to live in.
ABOUT ME
I'm unfortunately/fortunately always rushing everywhere,
true friends and love are what matters most to me, they make life worth living!
I'm energetic and positive, but I enjoy also quiet and silence to recharge..
If work is not taking away all my time I'd love to show you around this hidden city, where to truly see it you'll need to be addressed to the right spots.
PHILOSOPHY
I believe we can all make this world a better and more enjoyable place just by doing little things everyday..
'We won't use guns, we won't use bombs
We'll use the one thing we've got more of - that's our minds.' Pulp

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I like to spend time and talk with nice people in Milan and visiting and sharing moments with others where life will bring me.
- IMPORTANT!!! -
At the moment I'm most of the time at work or at my boyfriend's place that is OUTSIDE MILAN and WILL NOT BE easily available FOR A MEETING..
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I didn't know the existence of this wonderful community and practice before november 2008 :)
I often host friends and had hosted great couch surfers. I like giving tips that help enjoying this city and if I have the time I like going around with the visitors.
Interests
Messing around on my computer, surfing the net, watching movies, reading, theatre, talking to/meeting friends, traveling, playing and snorkeling in the sea, roller-blades to move around the city, dancing any kind of music, skating on ice, canoe on river.
I like to keep my self busy learning! (there's always something to discover!) People, new media, psychology, communication, art, ecology, social action, computers, music. I'm greedy of olives, seitan cooked in the pan with onions and dry curry and veg-sausages with sundried tomatoes, and any kind of nuts.
