About Me

CURRENT MISSION

living abroad, experiencing every place deeply and not just trying to make my "countries I've visited" list longer

ABOUT ME

I have always been living among hills and mountains, albeit in different cities. Being in nature inspires me and my passion for photography. During the years I have spent in Venice to study Japanese, I have been sharing my room with foreign students from all over the world and I learned a lot from them.
I went to Japan too with a friend, and even though I knewn so little Japanese by that time, I felt myself part of that charming as well as far culture. I loved visiting the temples settled upon high hills and long paths. I saw uncommon animals and unusual habits.
After I took my degree, I travelled through Europe taking part to international volunteering experiences. I don't mind hard work, consequently in Germany, Turkey and Czech Republic I joined the local people or the firefighters. I worked at renovating green areas and buildings or in fields picking up olives and chopping and carving wood planks. I enjoyed living in an essential way and in community, preparing food with my travel buddies and getting in touch with the local people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In my garden there is a wooden windmill which I have designed and built. It stands there proudly, making my house pretty recognizable among the others.
By the time I have lived in Venice, during the amazing phenomenon of "acqua alta" I was used to walk through the city to catch those magic sceneries.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love taking photographs, which I have approached as a self-learner; I am willing to exchange opinions and find new inspirational settings.
