About Me

I grew up in the country, i live in a farm with my family and a lot of animals. During the last years, I lived on the italian coast near France and travelled a lot, in Latin America and India-Sri Lanka.
I like to talk with people, listen to their experiences. I think that travel is the best way to understand cultures, places and oneself (limits, strengths, wishes).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2008 I worked in Costa Rica for seven months in four indigenous communities, located in the south of the country. This experience has deeply influenced my life. In 2010, I worked as a cook on a sailboat, from Genoa-Italy to Rio de Janeiro, with my boyfriend Luca.
Favourite places on earth: Salar de Uyuni (Bolivia), Puerto Pirámides-Península de Valdés (Argentina), Isla Isabela-Galapagos (Ecuador), Península de Osa and Punta Burica (Costa Rica), Isla de Ometepe (Nicaragua), Sardegna (Italy), Hampi valley (India), Ram's guesthouse in Midigama (Sri Lanka) and... Cervo, in Italy, where I'm actually living.
