Description
Hi, my name is Michele, but my friends call me Mirco.
I am a product designer. I worked in Florence for many years at companies in the luxury sector, and now I wish to discover the world through travels dedicated to beauty and tranquility. I love the energy of people.
In Florence, I took numerous permaculture courses—including synergistic agriculture, beekeeping, bamboo workshops, and various natural architecture workshops. Over the last few years in Italy, I have bought, renovated, furnished, and sold houses. These were fantastic projects that taught me a great deal about the world of construction and interior design. More recently, I converted a Renault Kangoo into a camper van—an experience that also gave me plenty of inspiration for new projects. On my Instagram account, @valentimicheledesigner, I share my projects and life experiences.
I have designed structures inspired by the plant world; I harbor a deep passion for plants, particularly ornamental varieties and indoor plants.
I have studied wonderful plants such as saffron, cacti, succulents, aloe, and many others.
My passion is nature. It represents the starting point for everything—and for existence itself. When you respect Nature, I would say that, ultimately, you are respecting yourself.
I have traveled extensively throughout Europe, and currently, I am traveling through Asia—something that has always been a dream of mine ✨.
I am interested in volunteering, trekking, horticulture, and adventure.
I love craftsmanship, music, and street food.
I know how to cook traditional dishes from my home country.
One of the goals of my travels is to learn English.
I believe that cultural exchange is one of the best ways to achieve this goal.
Everything can be transformed into an experience that helps you grow along the journey!

The people were always kind and made me feel part of the community as soon as I arrived.
I learned so much by contributing to the activities, and we always worked as a team, helping each other.
It is a chameleon-like project that is always evolving, with new projects, new people who join this family… read more
