About Me

I grew up in a city in front of the see in Sicily (Porto Empedocle) with an austrian mother, so i love the beach life and i love winter in the the mountains, swimming and skiing ! Since 9 years i m living in the circus" world" working in so many different places: Switzerland, Malaysia,France, Domenican Republic, Mexico,Egypt,Mauritius Island, Morocco.... performing and teaching flying trapeze ,acrobatic, aerial dance, juggling...to kids and adults, beginners and advanced.
In 2016 I took a pause from circus and i developed with friends a touristic network for the" incoming" in our city Agrigento,in the south coast of Sicily (check the website www.cityofthetemples.com) and i use to do incoming in BnB and resorts ( i worked a lot for Club Med ) .
I founded also with other 2 women an NGO called "Mariterra" (check our fb page) to organize social and cultural events , focusing on the care for the environnement, the coast and the requalification of places that are abandoned. I love travel and discover the culture , sharing experiences and make new ones....
