Description
Hei, my name is Martina, I am 27 years old and I come from Valle d'Aosta, in the Italian's Alps, on the border with the France and the Swizterland. I live in a small village in the mountains and I love the contact with nature, where I spend a lot of time and I practice most of my activities like collect herbs, berries, work in the garden, chop and sort the wood, take care of animals.
I like to have an outdoor lifestyle during all the seasons and I like have an active life: the sport for me it's an important routine.
I am a leather artisan and I make traditional works. In my free time I enjoy also drive my motorcycle and camping outside.
I like travel and have cultural exchanges, for some years I have been traveling especially in Norway. During my travels I learned the norwegian language and more about the norwegian lifestyle.

I am an artisan and I make traditional works for everyday life, mainly in leather and in particular related to Alpine and Nordic culture.
I am a skilled worker who works for Grivel, a company in the heart of the Italian Alps, that produces mountain equipment for climbing, skiing and hiking (ice axes, crampons, ski and trekking poles, paddles, carabiners, backpacks).
A the same time I like working outside in the nature and with the animals. This is the best lifestyle for me and in the Alps I can do this kind of works with my family, like cut wood, do carpentry work, grow fruit and vegetables, take care of our chickens and go to the woods to collect what nature offers us.
