ABOUT ME

I live in Paris with my husband Stefano, my daughter Ada (born in 2015) and my step-son Emilio (2009). I work in a contemporary art gallery, while Stefano is a researcher in Neuroscience.

Nothing makes me happier than discovering new places. But a few things come close: observing animals (becoming an ethologist was a dream of mine) and stuffing my kitchen with dozens of teas.
I'm extremely curious about almost everything, but on the other side I can be really lazy.
