Rob is the perfect guest you can have: he speaks in a low voice, he congratulates you for your amazing house, he wakes up and kisses your head to thank you!
Ali is the perfect flatmate: she wakes up and has her breakfast in a wine glass.
Marco started studying Audio Engineering at SAE Institute with my brother. Since they moved to Milano they are always together. Marco is elder than my brother and he is the "wise friend" (he even practices yoga)!
Originally Dino had to be my travel-mate. But there we met so many people...
Irene, Tube and Isotta, Place de la République, Paris
I studied with Irene last year in Milano, then she moved to Copenhagen but now she is in Paris, where she's doing an internship at Lagardere for the magazine ELLE.
Tube is a university-friend too, but he's now taking his double degree at HEC in Jouy en Josas, near Paris.
Isotta, his girlfriend, lives now in Sarajevo, but was on holiday in Paris.
Do you think this is a mess? Not yet...
Paul, at La Caravane, Paris
Pol, Pol, Pol! He was the only one we actually planned to meet in Paris. Mon Pol! We met in Milano, while he was there for an Erasmus from Paris, but now he lives in London.
I wait you soon now that you work a lot and you're rich!
Charles, Sophie, Rémi, au Chat Noir, Paris
Charles and Sophie hosted me and Dino for the first two nights in Paris. That was their first couchsurfing experience, but they've been actually amazing with us. Sophie is only 24 but she already teaches French, Latin and ancient Greek, while Charles works in fishing at the Ministry of Agriculture.
Rémi is a friend of Paul and he is Parisian. That's the only thing I know about him.
Ahmed, au Chat Noir, Paris
Ahmed is Paul's room-mate in London and we loved him. Ahmed you're a great guy and the way you laugh makes me laugh a lot. Hope to meet you soon, in Toronto, in Milan, in Paris or anywhere!
Camille, at her place, Paris
Camille is the beautiful Paul's cousin. She hosted us for two nights, but she's been incredible in any situation: cooking pasta, helping us at the police station, booking our taxi in the early morning, but she gave her best in drinking red wine and talking about art and politics. Camille the angel!
Stella and Betty, sur la Seine, Paris
They came to Paris for the Godspeed You Black Emperor (yes, very short name) concert. Another great coincidence. Thanks to Paul we spent an unthinkable night in Paris, dancing in a stranger's house till 6 am, than going to Montmartre waiting for the sunrise. It didn't arrive. Paul forgot that it was January and we had to wait till 8.30 for the parisian sun.
Arianna, Ria (hope it's written like that), Isotta, at Marchino's place, Milano
The New Year's Eve girls!
Arianna, back from Bergen where she spend the last 4 cold months. She arrived in Milan with the idea of coming back home in the night, but she obviously quickly changed her mind. Norway made her even more beautiful.
Ria, arrived directly from California. She's the smile girl: she knew nobody but immediately felt at ease with us. Hope to meet you again!
Isotta, the no-Facebook Romagnole girl. She now lives in Sarajevo where she's learning slavonic. I was really curious about Sarajevo, actually I knew everything about it, but after what she told me I would really love spending some time there. Did you know there's no McDonald's in Sarajevo? I've found this quite amazing. Not negative, of course, but strange.
