During my young years i grew up in the countryside, in a farming family. In this environment i gained a particular fondness for living and working both in nature and together alongside with other people. My 3 sisters and i learned to coexist with the turning of the seasons and from the ingredients given by our surroundings.
When i turned 18, i moved to the city where i attended university, studying Fine Arts. Afterwards i obtained a teaching degree and a master in Cultural Studies. I worked for art museums and theater festivals and taught art education at university college with undergraduate students.
A few years ago i took a course in tea tasting, where i learned about the terroir, production methods, preparation and recognition of the aroma of loose quality tea deriving from the tea plant Camellia Sinensis. These skills, to do with the senses and with nature, i try to nurture and develop further by attending masterclasses, doing internships and readings on the topic.
In recent years, I have been dividing my time and seasons between traveling, working and volunteering abroad, very often in places of art, nature and silence. During one of my travels, as a temporary residential community member of Bonnevaux, Center for Peace in France, I learned how to meditate in a contemplative way and learned to consciously integrate silence during the day. These elements have now been part of my way of living for many years.
I continue to travel when I can, to learn and share.Interessengebiete
