ABOUT ME

i've been living alone since I was 22 with two cats, Thelma and Louise. In 2011 I left to Thailand for one year and also to volunteer in some NGOs... I'm fond of gender issues, I've been to Iran in 2008 to get my degree in Human Rights Defence, thesis about feminist movements after 1979; this experience opened my mind a lot, even if I had already travelled before (Chiapas, Guatemala, Belize, Turkey, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, but only as a traveller..)Afterwards I went to India (Rajasthan), Morocco, Syria, and recently to Tajikistan, Uzbekistan,Kirghizstan, SouthAfrica, Peru, in a completely different life style..
I've been working as a no profit bank clerk since I was 22 and now I'd like to think of my future...I'm studying thai, I speak French, English and a little bit of Spanish.I'm vegetarian.I'm learning dancing Lindyhop (swing about the 30s) and I have finished a Counselling School to help people to solve some problems by listening....i like meeting Curious People, snowboarding, by bike or on foot, playing the piano, have a run, swimming. I do Ashtanga yoga.
I'm tour leader for Avventure nel Mondo since 2014.
