About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Abolish borders

ABOUT ME

I consider myself a person that can't pretend everything is great. I feel the injustice of this world and feel the urge to try work for a change, even if considered impossible.

I'm a passionate learner and, on average, I have tons of enthusiasm.

I love suburban areas, ugly popular housing architecture and bad roads where real people live real not instagrammable lives.

CURRENT SITUATION:
I mainly work in a refugee camp in Greece, when I'm not in Italy or doing projects somewhere else.

I my house there is no space for racist, islamofobic, fascist, antisemitic and zionist people. Go polluting somewhere else, bye.

PHILOSOPHY

a good joke is better then a philosophy book.

*couch surfing is not a dating app, if you expect to "get paid" for hosting someone (especially girls), that's fucked up and pretty misoginist*

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE
I just start again my couch surfing adventure after about 6years without using it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I used this platform a lot in my 20's, then stopped since life is unpredictable.
I'd love to experience CS as an "adult" now, I'm curious to see how it evolved.

Interests

I grew up half nerd half wood girl. Now I privilege the outside world but still enjoy weirdness from youtube, the Existential Comics, and of course Reddit.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy art, music, cinema. Underground culture, squats and liberated communal spaces. And I don't like cops.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled by bike, hitchhiking, by train, and most of all by imagining.

Teach, Learn, Share

I produce my own organic and solid cosmetics: shampoo, soap, toothpaste, moisturizers and more. And i saw most of my gear with upcycled textiles.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer challenging thoughts, reality showers and ugly sarcasm. I can share food, hopefully some laughs, stories and also silence.

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Austria, Belgium, China, Croatia, Cuba, Denmark, Egypt, France, Germany, Greece, India, Ireland, Japan, Laos, Malta, Mexico, Myanmar, Nepal, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, Thailand, United States, Uruguay
