    SHORT VERSION

    As far as I remember, I always loved taking care of animals and exploring our beautiful earth 🌍🐾

    This is why, from learning quickly how to read so that I could learn more about animals to learning how to ride horses at the age of 5, studying environmental sciences and volunteering in several wildlife rescue centers & dog shelters, every decision I made was aimed at spending time with animals and learning more about them.

    Aside from my knowledge about animals, the staff of the rescue centers and dog shelters where I've been volunteering every week for the past 4 years all appreciate my positive state of mind and my shining smile.

    Thanks a million for taking the time to read my profile, I can't wait to meet you!

    LONG VERSION

    As far as I remember, I've always been fascinated by animals.
    In fact, some of my first memories include the 8-years-old version of me reading books about ethology, watching Jane Goodall's documentaries and hiking with my dog in the Dolomites.

    While some girls of my age were playing with dolls, I was daydreaming and thinking of my perfect life: exploring the world on horseback. More recently, I found myself wondering how exciting could be life in a ranch.

    Can you imagine an 8-year-old schoolgirl raising awareness about endangered species with her cute little voice? That's me!

    From learning quickly how to read so that I could learn more about animals to learning how to ride horses at the age of 5 and volunteering in several wildlife rescue centers and dog shelters, every decision I made was aimed at spending time with animals and learning more about them.

    Aside from my knowledge about animals, the staff of the rescue centers and dog shelters where I've been volunteering every week for the past 4 years all appreciate my positive state of mind and my shining smile.

    Growing up, I discovered the concept of Ikigai and enjoyed taking hikes all around Europe.
    Those thoughts and experiences made me realise I would be happier traveling and volunteering around the world than working a corporate job. Hence my decision to quit my job and do what makes me truly happy.

    What if working with you was a way to make my childhood dreams come true?

    Thanks a million for taking the time to read my profile, I can't wait to meet you!-
