About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Choose in what part of world I would like live

ABOUT ME
I like travel and speak with the people of different culture. I'm totally clumsy and for this I'm so funny sometimes.
I like take pictures and spend the time in front of a good landscape drawing.
I definitely love visit Art Museum, I have a passion for the contemporary art.
When I have spare time I usually chose a warm and comfortable bar where i can stay hours to read a book and drink a good tea.
On sunday with my firends in Florence we organize hikes on the near Mountain. Those hikes almost ever finish with a good bottle of wine and a piece of bread and cheese.
The last year I also start to climb. I'm begginer but I like really so much.
What more? I'm from a city in the South of Italy near the sea so the water is my element. I need to stay near at this element, so those places with river, lake or sea are the best for my soul.(I like to swim too)

Soy una persona bastante alegre, me gusta hablar con la gente y aprender cosas sobra distintas culturas. Soy una buena cucinera!Cuando no puedo sonreir me basta un lapiz o un pinche con buenas musica y todo vuelve a estar bien.

PHILOSOPHY

Homo faber ipsius fortunae

Cuando sonries , el mundo sonrie contigo, cuando lloras, lloras solo

Solo il lavoro creativo libera dalla subalternità.
