About Me

Hello you!

For whatever reason you are visiting this page, a big Welcome to you!

I love to express myself through art. By doing something creative I feel alive and fulfilled. It can be by simple things such as cooking a nice meal for a friend, playing with paints, taking pictures around the world or expressing myself through dance.

Art a part, I work as a creative therapist in London. I work with a variety of different client groups as well as in my private practice.

Before London I used to live in Rome for more than 6 years where I studied photography and I showcased my work. I feel on a different stage with art nowadays. Art is my medicine. I tend to use it as a healing process and mainly for myself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been using CS since 2008. It has provided me with priceless experiences and each time I recognise the value of travelling and meeting locals, it is just great!

I find it absolutely amazing and I would recommend it to any open-minded person who want to travel and meet new people.

Interests

movement, photography and contemporary art, cinema and theatre, dance, music and books. Meeting new people and to learn from each other.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love films, when I can't travel it is my favourite way to get distracted and wind down. I love art house cinema and independent productions that feel more real.

On the book side, my favourite one is Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse. Each time that I read it, I discover something else within myself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first time in India was mind blowing. I never experienced anything similar. Instead of travelling all over the country we decided to travel across Rajasthan for three months.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am willing to offer good quality time and share my experience.
Occasionally I can host in my place in London. I share the house with my boyfriend and his son.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversations, Good healthy veggie food, a good laugh, a good film, a good dance, some easygoing time.

Countries I’ve Visited

Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, India, Italy, Maldives, Morocco, Poland, Thailand, Tunisia, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
