About Me

Italian 30 y.o. girl from Bologna and now living in low Piedmont for love, SAHM living for my lovely daughter.

Very creative, sensitive, dreamer (often daydreamer), I love animals (sometimes more than people), I feel a deep affection to my homeland, absolutely not proud about our Prime Minister Mr Berlusconi.

Compulsive scrapper, past pro blogger and web writer, currently citizen journalist, I published 2 short stories in 2 anthologies written by and for young ones.

I speak currently English and French I guess because I'm very open-minded about foreign cultures and people are always shocked at the discovery that sometimes I can quietly dream in English.

I visited almost the whole Europe, I consider myself a citizen of the world. One of my dreams is to become travel writer one day, it'd be my ideal job...even if, when I was younger, my dream was to become singer (sometimes I secretly still dream about it)!!

Interests: scrapbooking, cardmaking, photography, travelling, foreign languages, cooking, singing, writing, blogging, reading.

I love homemade dolls, clothes and jewels, I love to try new recipes also from foreign Countries, I'm very happy to visit national trade fairs about hobbies & crafts and I'd like to visit also international ones one day.

About scrapbooking: I started during summer 2006 after a foreign friend's suggestion and I immediately fell in love with that hobby, I hope to hand down it to my daughter soon. My fav colours are white, yellow, pink, purple and black. In my layouts I never forget to use foam or chipboard alphabets, tags and die cuts. I like to mix materials, adding felt, fabric and so on in my works.

Lately I'm very addicted to mini albums, fat books and swaps.

About postcards: I'd love to receive the ones with cities topviews, landscapes, sightseeings and people, but I'm open to everything else as I really love all the kind of postcards.

I hate games on Facebook and chains via email or via letters.

Favorite Music

Mariah Carey, Christina Aguilera, Eliza Doolittle, Queen, R.E.M., Laura Pausini

Favorite Books

I'm in love with all the books written by Paulo Coelho (I love his style), Nickolas Sparks, Antonio Socci, Susanna Tamaro, Sveva Casati Modignani and so on.

Favorite Television

X-factor, Dancing with the stars

Important notes for swappers

I absolutely need to send my packages with recorded delivery to my assigned partner/partners if the goods have some value because in Italy the postal service doesn't work properly (as everything else, hihihi) and I'd hate to lose my works and do everything again.

Unfortunately in Italy it isn't allowed to send decorated envelopes, sorry if I can't do it for you!

Important message to swappers

If you're my partner in some swap and your package is supposed to arrive here from June 15th to 30th, please send me an email before sending, because I won't be home in that period, so that I'll give you another address where I'll receive it without problems!! Thanks!

Comment: the wonderful water fountain postcard arrived yesterday ... it is good that you have such nice memories of it & i hope you will always find something to appreciate where ever you live or travel!! please enjoy a fun fantastic weekend :)
Response: If you look onto the postcard, you'll find a number, I guess the "1"...just because I sent you 2 postcards (one of them was obviously extra, from my favourite city, Bologna, the provincial capital of my hometown)...I'm almost sure that someone "intercepted" it along its way to you because it was really nice and decided to keep it for himself/herself...and I'm almost sure that that someone is in Italy...it's really sad! I still hope that you receive it soon, but I really don't know... Anyway, I'm happy that you liked the other one; if I can, I'd like to take a real photo when I visit my hometown next time, so that you can see it better ;)

Comment: Thanks for the menus! You're right, it was interesting to see the price differences... and it was fun to try to figure out the Italian words :) I've never studied Italian but I guess I know a lot of food words... so if I'm ever lost in Italy, at least I won't starve :D
