Hello I’m Alessandra 31 years old from Italy and I’m travelling in French Polynesia 🌺 with Micol also 31, from Italy.

We met in Australia jn 2019 and since then we are travelling together. We both speak fluently Italian, English and Spanish.

Regarding myself :
Alessandra
I am an Italian illustrator, originally from Rimini.

I'm into art since when I was a child as I grew up in an art-friendly environment. I studied at an art High school. After school, I moved abroad and I lived in the UK, Australia, Asia and New Zealand . I am passionate about traveling,  I like the unknown and I am a curious individual who loves to embrace and approach new cultures, experience, and adapt to different situations and circumstances.
I also did Volunteering as an English Teacher, preparing lessons for students of primary and secondary school at Ban Ko Adang School in Koh Lipe, Thailand

I use my creative skills to create new works, I like to experiment with different media such as painting, photography and linoprinting.
Currently, I started to use different software to combine hand-drawing, painting with digital media to create complete illustrations. 

I believe in the power of the picture, as an image can convey a complete and powerful message. My attention to detail is formidable.

I’m easygoing, friendly and sociable and like to meet some new people! I like to hang out, listen to new music, make new experiences and dance (bad and randomly)

I like to exchange mural art and illustration for accommodation

Micol originally from Milan, she’s a sweet human being,
She’s studied graphic design at the university of London, she’s a swimming teacher and worked for the past 11 years as swimming coach and teacher.

She’s passionate about photography and loves hiking and breathtaking landscapes, she enjoys organizing trips and she s very reliable. She’s has a very organized and tidy mindset.
