About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am a daydreamer but I do not want to dwell on dreams or the past, I want to live and make things happen...

ABOUT ME

My fav food is pizza!

I love all Seasons , especially summer. Christmas is one of my favourite time and I like to dress up at Halloween and Carnevale.
I am curious, outgoing, easy going, I like to joke and listen to people's stories. I also like to improvise and I love surprises :)I like to meet my friends at the pub and coffee shop( I love coffee), go to the movies, festivals, the beach and live concerts.

Get lost in the streets of Venice and camp in the woods.

I really care about the environment and I like to recycle, reuse and make consumer choices that will benefit nature and people.

I believe economy can't prevail over democracy.

I love the sea and water is my element so I cant wait to jump in it when summer comes! I am enchanted by snowfalls an I like cuddling by a fireplace...and go down the mountain with a sledge.

PHILOSOPHY

love others like you love yourself
