Overview
About Me
ABOUT ME
I am an easy going, very open minded 34-year-old Italian girl. I am very sociable and I love meeting new people and making new friends. I am not afraid of speak my mind and I love to discuss about things in general, even when coming across contrasting opinions. Travel is a passion my parents transmitted me when I was still a child. I have traveled throughout many countries around the world but I reckon I have a lot more to see. I am a doctor, training in Emergency Medicine in Bristol. I moved to London when I was 19, where I lived for 6 years, after which I moved to Cyprus for 2 years, and 1 year in Puerto Rico in an exchange program. After that I lived in Cardiff for a year, then move to Bristol. After spending 3.5 years back in Bristol I decided to take on a new excited opportunity to have an experience in the Australian healthcare system. I lived in Melbourne for 1 year with my fiancée and travelled around Australia and New Zealand for 4 months before coming back to Bristol.
Oh, yes, I lived in Ibiza for 5 months during my undergraduate studies in 2011, where I worked as a waitress to make some money to travel around.
PHILOSOPHY
Be the unicorn in a field of horses 🦄 🌈
If you don't like your life, there is always time to change it. Live and let live. I don't like people who judge how others live their lives and pretend to impose their rules and conservative views onto others.

Teach, Learn, Share
I would like to learn everything I possibly can. Never stop learning! I would like to learn Arabic one day, and to play the violin.
