ABOUT ME

It's really difficult to summarize yourself in a profile...
...let me think...

I grew up in a small village close to the Alps, a beautiful place surrounded by mountains. When I started the university I moved to Torino, one of the main city of the North West of Italy, one hour far from my hometown. I have been living in Turin for 3 years, and after I graduated I went to México for a volunteering project. After 10 months in Mexico and South America I came back to Europe. I moved to Paris for a two years Master Degree in Sociology and Migration and now I live again in Turin.

I'm a simple person, I like traveling, meeting people from around the world, seeing different places, staying with friends, riding my bike, etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first CouchSurfing experience has been great! The thing I liked the most was the fact that I had the opportunity to meet people that lived Istanbul as their everyday life. It was really nice to talk with them and discover their lives and their point of view. I liked to share with them our political and cultural situations, it makes me grow a lot and I understood lots of new things about Turkey in general. And I wouldn't be able to do it without CouchSurfing. It's amazing!!!

Interests

I like cultures!! I mean I like increasing, knowing my culture and other people's cultures. I think it's really interesting knowing better what surrounds you, which can be a 19th poem, a songs from the Seventies, a movie about China or a friends from India. I'm not sure you've got it, but I hope.
Then I like reading, drawing, movies, photography, art, etc.
