ABOUT ME

I'm a Wellingtonian girl with an Italian upbringing, having lived away most of my life.I love music, travel, the outdoors, cooking..I try to be independent. I'm open-minded and a thinker. I'd probably say, meeting new people, learning languages and taking in new ideas and cultures is a must!

PHILOSOPHY

"The mind is like a parachute - it works best when open"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a newbie at couchsurfing and hosting may be difficult, unless one night on the couch.
If we can't host for some reason I'd love to meet up for a drink and a laugh!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't yet had the experience of couch surfing as such, but I've had the experience of meeting many who do, who have become great friends and I've stayed nights in tents, couches, beds, the floor you name it.

Interests

Lovely is the sun, sea..to travel, love, the eyes, friends, a day at the beach..by boat, kyack, staying awake (at times) all night, a wonderful red Sicilian wine with friends, open-minded people, music, the sound of the guitar..concerts..trekking and relaxing in the mountains, away from society..interesting books..the arts, movies, a motorbike, creative people, simplicity, being spontaneous..nice to dream, to have imagination..new ideas.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So difficult, alot of extreme situations have happened in my life. I guess moving to Italy with my relatives I hardly knew, when I was 14 without my parents and starting art school without knowing the language was all surprising at the least. a totally different culture with many up's and down's, that I'm grateful for and changed who I am.
