Lecco

Lecco is my hometown. 

It is enclosed between the mountains and the lake. 

Famous for being the city of "I Promessi Sposi" Alessandro Manzoni's literary masterpiece

"Quel ramo del lago di Como, che volge a mezzogiorno, tra due catene non interrotte di monti" 

(Description of Lecco, I Promessi Sposi, Alessandro Manzoni)

Hiking and trekking

My passion for hiking starts when I was a child an I moved my firsts steps on hometown mountains. Some of my favorite places around Lecco are: Val Biandino, San Martino Chapel, Mt. Resegone, Piani di Artavaggio

 In November 2022, together with my partner Simone and some friends, I went to Nepal and I did the Three Pass Trekking, one of the most beautiful and complete trekking in the Khumbu Valley

Danny & friends

Simone and I have a beautiful dog, Danny, that we rescued from the street. Danny is part of our family from 2019. 


Also, every year, we adopt a species with WWF. Lot of animals are in danger due to human activities!    

This year we adopted a Lion

Treedom

Climate change and human exploitation are having a huge impact on deforestation. That's why with Treedom we plant trees around the world. 


Yoga

I practice Vinyasa yoga since 2018 and I have a wonderful teacher, Federica Caronna. One of her objective is to teach you how to bring yoga into your daily life to improve it. 


Gospel choir 

I like singing. Since I was in Italy I was part of a gospel choir, named "Sol Quair" (literally : the choir of the soul).
