    Description

    I’m Mirka, a 30years Italian photographer, living in the north of Italy, near some of the most wonderful cities (Verona, Venezia, Padova) all at 30 or 40 min from my place.
    Mountains and hills all around.
    My house is a really big place in the countryside, and has all the comforts: a porch, gardens, beautiful fields and landscapes, and there are no houses attached to mine.

    My house is still a work in progress on the outside, the garden it's not finished, but inside it is spacious, modern and very large.

    I can’t afford to take my beautiful dog with me during my worktrips: it’s an Australian Sheperd that needs someone who takes care of him (and the house of course) while I’m not at home.
