How are you?

How are you? I just wanted to say hello! It has been a while…I wanted to write something, but I didn’t quite know what to say. This is such a difficult time. We are all dealing with uncertanty and fear and at the same time, we are trying to get things done, while adapting to new realities.

In Italy, as you know, we have been in lockdown for some time. I’m currently teaching online. I had to learn how to do it quickly, just like many other teachers. I live in an apartment with my dog and two cute cats. I talk to my friends on video and with my lovely neighbour on my balcony :-).

I’ve decided to spend most of my time in lockdown to learn new skills. This is helpful, it keeps my mind occupied and relaxes me. Photography is also very helpful when I face hard times, so you’ll probably see me a bit more often on this blog, from now on, as I’m thinking to start a lockdown project.

I just hope that you are all well and safe.  If anyone needs to talk, I’ll be here. I’ll be available. Stay safe at home and use creativity in order to feel free.

Lots of love from Italy XX

Take a look around….It’s spring! :-)

Absolute beauty! I took these photographs with an old sony compact camera… Sometimes you don’t need an expensive equipment, especially when the subject is so breathtaking!

Enjoy Spring! ❤
