  • Description

    Hello, I’m Anita ༄

    I come from the heart of the Italian Alps༄the Dolomites 🏔️💛
    I'm a trained fashion designer and a self-employed photographer. I specialize in capturing authentic, unplanned emotions༄ real, raw moments. One of the most powerful experiences I’ve had as a photographer was documenting a birth... it moved me deeply.

    One of my dreams is to one day create a Workaway-style sanctuary here in the Dolomites: a creative retreat center where people can gather, connect, and co-create in nature 🌿

    Another passion of mine is dyeing fabrics with natural pigments. I’ve even crafted my own colors that I can use to paint directly on fabric. My dream is to create unique, one-of-a-kind pieces and eventually sell them. For now, I’m in an exciting phase of experimenting and learning. I'm especially interested in eco-printing and exploring sustainable techniques to make clothing that is both artistic and environmentally conscious.

    For now, I’m traveling in my van this winter 🚐❄️, seeking a peaceful place where I can contribute meaningfully, learn, and also reconnect with myself. After experiencing burnout this year, I feel called to slow down, be surrounded by nature 🌱, and maybe even start painting again 🎨something I deeply enjoyed while traveling in Australia (with Workaway).

    A few years ago, I joined several Workaway projects and loved the experience ✨🤗 So returning to this way of traveling and exchanging feels natural.
