PERSONAL MILESTONE

both professional and emotional

Professional milestone: Federico and I launched a successful travel agency, blending my creativity with his business skills to create memorable adventures for clients.
Emotional milestone: Overcoming shame, my eating disorder, and self-hatred has been my greatest achievement. With Federico's support, I now embrace my uniqueness and happiness.

“Talk. Don’t hesitate to share your struggles”

“Find your way to ground yourself.”

BOOK

La Divina Commedia by Dante

I love its complexity and how it inspires personal growth while exploring forgiveness—something I've struggled with. Themes of justice, redemption, and spiritual growth resonate deeply. My "7x70" tattoo reminds me that mistakes don't mean eternal condemnation.

DAILY INSPIRATIONS

Invest in creativity

A dear friend and art photographer, Volvoreta (Jimena Garcia), once told me: "Many people call themselves creative, but are you truly creative if you don’t invest in your creativity?" Reflecting on that, I realized how true it is. I stay creative and inspired by investing in experiences—traveling the world, crossing even the most impenetrable borders, and embracing every challenge.

ART

Trayma by Caterina Roppo

One of my dearest friends is Caterina Roppo, an artist from Puglia. Her Trayma collection touched me deeply, and we celebrated her first solo exhibition in Rome last month—speaking of milestones. Through my work, I've also met influential people in the hospitality world with a special love for art, such as Gertrud Schneider (Kristiania Lech) and Liz Biden (The Royal Portfolio). Their eclectic styles and art knowledge continue to inspire me.

BAG PICKED

Loop soft croco espresso

I fell in love with KAAI the moment I entered the store. Beyond the stunning designs, founders Helga & Ine truly inspire—supporting brands and sharing expertise to uplift young businesses. I chose for the Loop croco espresso, because I love the color.
