About Me

ABOUT ME

IMPORTANT!!!!!
••••I am sorry but I can't host people at the moment, I am traveling••••

I basically think that the world is divided in two categories: the ones who like the pasta with tomato chunks in the sauce, and the ones who HATES big and mushy pieces of tomato in the sauce. I definitely belong to the second one, even if I am learning not to leave the chunks at the edges of the plate -my mum thinks it's inappropriate. What category do you belong to..?
Isn't it hard to describe ourselves?? Much easier to judge the others (and very unfair too)..I am going to have a try :)
I would describe myself as a free spirited, easy going and happy girl who tries to see the beauty of things. I have been told I am very good with people (I hope so!) because I listen to them and I try to understand the situations they are in. I love listening to their stories and their lives. Well, I can be pretty moody and a bit dramatic sometimes (come on, we women cannot give ALWAYS the fault to our periods!!), and pretty clumsy (but in a nice way, I'd say).
I am adaptable to any kind of situations, with no-frills at all, and I believe in mutual respect.
(Ok, let's say it, if I could I would just travel around the world, sleeping under the stars and loving life!!)

PHILOSOPHY

"The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun." Chris Mccandless
I think people who travel are more open minded than people who don't (generally speaking). Travel around the world is the best way to learn things, discover yourself, see how life works and grow up.. And life is so short, we can't waste even a single day doing things we are not happy with!
"What is essential is invisible to the eye" ❤

Interests

Peanut butter, animals (not just cuddling them, I like to understand them!), keeping my mind and my body in movement in all the ways I can (any kind of sports, outdoor activities for the body, stimulating conversations for my mind! ) and the Nature around us. Have I mention penaut butter?
I like spending some times on my own, we all need some time for ourselves, but I also enjoy being surrounded by people (the right ones!).
I get along with kids and it seems they really like me 😉 I personally consider them as tiny humans with their own personality, some are amazing some horrible.
I studied cinema and photography at secondary school, I love everything has to do with that world, and art in general. I think art is everywhere, also in the smallest and more insignificant things at first glance, we only need the eyes and the heart to see it. I like also having long walks, to notice kind small actions that nobody else sees, smile to people, eating apples, spoons and spoons of peanut butter (just in case I haven't mentioned it) and chocolate and cookies (all right, all the sweets), chatting with random people, writing when I am inspired, and.. Music all the time, it's my drug!

If you, generous soul 🙏🏽, have accepted my hosting request, be sure to hide your peanut butter if you have any 😂😂 it's my addiction!! Just thought to warn you 😉

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading, I literally eat up books!! from the classic ones ("Wuthering Heights", "Pride and Prejudice"..) to fantasy and scientific books, romances, poetry, everything my friends suggest me.. "Into the Wild" is my Bible!
I like movies and also animation ones (Miyazaki and Disneys), and as I have already written music is my drug! Italian old composers, electronic, folk music, rock (also some metal), I like good music in general :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in Ireland for nearly a year and it was just the beginning of my adventurous life. Everything makes more sense and it's more intense when you are away from home and you have to get by on your own with your forces. You discover the goodness on yourself and a strength you didn't know to have. Working as a voluntary in a rehab really changed the list of my priorities!
I have been to Pakistan for three months (Prejudices about the Islamic world are just the sign of the ignorance of many), travelled in Asia and USA, lived in New Zealand for a year and I am in the middle of another one in Australia!

Everyone is a student and everyone is a teacher!
