CURRENT MISSION

Catch my favorable wind. Everywhere it is!

ABOUT ME

I belong to the '' Take it easy'' club! I was born in Sicily (the most beautiful place in the world) but I moved far away from my belowed Modica to study tourism and achieve my university graduation. 3 years in Milan, 2 in Lugano then 2 in Rome to work for an International Tourism Company. One day just decided to quit my job and start my new life following my real nature. I started volunteering in Congo then living in Australia for 2 amazing years and before coming back home volunteering in India. Back in my beloved Sicily I decided to use my empathy for good so I decided to work as social worker in a refugees camp.
Currently, I live in a magic beach house in Pozzallo (15 min. far from Modica by car). Magic because I used to spent there all my summer from age 0 to 11 before coming back 30 years later!
It got a comfy bbq station and a stunning terrace with great view (just in front of the Mediterranean sea). I can offer a private room and, when schedules matches, sharing some local experience ( I love nature, trekking and we got lot of canyons to visit (cava ispica, cava grande del cassibile, cava maria, cava carosello, and other) as much as astonishing beaches (sampieri, ciriga, gelsomineto), natural reserves (natural oasis of Vendicari) and unique cities (Modica, Scicli, Ibla , Marzamemi)).
Almost every morning I do easy trekking from beaches to beaches surrounded only by the magnificience of the sea. In case, you r always free to join (Despite being usually very active I do also love to be very slow and easy on my private time...my representative animal is the snail :) !
I can also drop u or carry you to/from places, still, when schedules matches. Apart from work, I like doing sports like tennis, football, padel...and I m very very bad with surf!

I only ask back from you is mutual positivity, kindness and respect. Hosting a lot of people thought me that during time together we r sharing same "right and duties". Easy easy :) .

Currently me and my friends decide to use our free time to run a project in Modica called "Modicaltra" (looking after local communities sharing good practices for, actually, better living together, looking after each other starting with values with respect to Nature and future generations). It keeps me very busy and tiring but, most of all, proud and motivated!
