Overview
About Me
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

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I spent two hours speaking to a small Russian girl who wanted to pracice her English on the Trans-Siberian Railway... Before she left, she gave me a key and said that she didn't know what it opened, but maybe I could find out. I'm still looking...
Teach, Learn, Share

German expressionism
Inquistion and torture devices(scary, I know. But fascinating...)
How to make a perfect risotto
Inquiry-based education techniques (no relation to the torture devices...)
