CURRENT MISSION Go everywhere. Do everything. Learn it all. ABOUT ME I love meeting new people and traveling. I like art, books, making collages, snowboarding, surfing, my cats, music... I'm pretty easy-going. I am a teacher because it is an important job, I like spending my day doing stupid things with kids and I love glitter. I have travelled a bit and have lived in a few different countries. I like the world. What can I say? There are a lot of things to learn and experience - I'd like to try as many of those things as possible. PHILOSOPHY la voglia di non ragionare ma vivere
