One of my greater passion is travelling.
I have always loved to travel since I was a child. The first trip I made was a cruise in the Mediterranean Sea. Even though i was six, I remember the waiter bringing some chocolates to my two-years-old sister in the morning. I love see new places maybe becouse I live in a small city!!
One of my favourite trips was that in Dubai, which is an incredible place!!
It's strange to think that 40 years ago there was nothing and now it's the biggest place I've never seen.
I had planned the most beautiful trip in all my life, that is to go to America, but unfortunately it was not possible because of the Covid-19.
Anyway, I am grateful to my parents for the possibilities they have given me until now.

It is difficult to choose only one passion, because I think that passion can be defined as anything that makes you happy and makes you grow.

I love painting... I feel better when I paint!! In each brush stroke I carry a part.. can't you imagine a sunset without colours?? for me the colors are magic. I am the one who chooses everything, I can bring my way of seeing the world on paper, the colours of the heart with acrylic.
In these days I painted the door of my room, it was more difficult than expected, but now it is personalized, it is no longer a door, it is MY door.

My passion is to ride a horse. I love that feeling of freedom that transmits me. I love taking long walks by the sea and watching the sunset. Since I was a child I had this dream, and at the age of 7, my parents enrolled me. Horse riding is a very demanding sport because you have to take care of your horse every day, it is also very tiring because you need strength in your legs but, nevertheless, I love to do it.
I have many animals including three horses and a pony, which I look after and cuddle every day.
This is my passion!!!

I dance and I attend a five-year course of acrobatics of circus practices aerial tissues. I hope to be able to continue and  to become one day .

One of my greatest passion is animal world.

I always had a unconditional and undying love for animals, I grew up in the countryside with my grandmother and she learned me how to connect with nature and respect her offspring. Besides, my father had any kind of animals and he introduced me to falconry and owlery when I was in a really really young age.
I have had a Harri’s hawk (Molly), three Kestrels and a barn owl, called Luna until now.
Another of my other greatest passion is Paganism.. I love to study pagan Gods and traditions in my free time.  My curiosity always drives me to ask about ancient traditions, reciepes and superstitious actions called spells.
My favourite pagan Gods are Diana and the Morning Star Lucifer, that are very ancient gods, honored for many years before the beginning of Christianity.
Being in constant contact with nature feeds the animal inside me, I need it like plants with rain.

One of my passions is photography. The first time I took a picture was in Berlin and, since then, I’ve always been taking pictures.
I am the second best in my family... the first is my uncle, He is a photographer and he is very good. My uncle taught me that “the imagine, the photo is in your mind; even if it hurts in the camera,  it will be perfect in your mind ”. After listening his words, I asked my parents for a camera. For my birthday they gave me one as a gift.
I prefer to take photos at sunset, I really like the shades of colours. I need to improve because I’m still a beginner. I will learn to use my camera. I hate when someone has to take a picture of me because they never come out well. I will show you a photo taken by me, Unfortunately I took the picture with the phone, but i really like the colours.

My passion is dancing.

I started dancing when I was  three years old.

Dancing makes me happy and free.

Unfortunately,  I haven’t  praticticed it for a couple of years, but I hope to start again soon .

I remember the first time I entered a dance hall I was super excited .

I have  tried  many types of dancing.. from contemporany,to zumba,to salsa.

I have partecipated in many regional competitions.

I remember my first regional competition.. it was also the first time!! I danced as a protagonist, it dates back  to when I was  three  years old, I was super excited  but  I didn’t worry so much because I just wanted to have fun. That was one of the many beautiful experiences that I have never had.

Even though  I know I’m not a very good dancer, I like dancing because I can forget all my problems.

In this  video there is  a small part of a choreography that I performed 4 years ago.

One of my passions since I was a child is that of cooking. Infact, I always remember my grandma teaching me how to make bread, pizza, pasta, cake and biscuits.
As a child I was not so tidy because, for example, I dropped flour on the kitchen's floor  ... I was good at mixing the ingredients.  Over time, I became more orderly and started making many foods on my own, even if my mum helped me put stuff in the oven.  Now I'm quite good and I cook almost everything, sweet and salty.
Cooking for me is an amazing activity because it relaxes me, especially during the quarantine period.

Since chilhood I’ve always had a passion for music.
When I listen to music I feel good. Music has always accompanied me in the  difficult and happy moments of my life. In particular, I played the clarinet during the Middle School , I felt relaxed when I listened to classical music on my phone.
Unluckily I had to stop playing the clarinet because I didn’t have enough free time. I like any kind of music, so I listen to pop music and one of my favourite Italian singer is Ultimo. My favorite English song is ‘Another love’ by Tom Odell

My passion

One of my greater passions is watching Japanese cartoons, better known as "anime". I started to watch anime when I was 12 because my friends talked about them a lot...so I decided to try.
My first anime was "My hero academia", an anime about superheroes, and I really liked it!
it had great opening songs, an interesting plot and cool action scenes!
But, even if it has a special place in my heart, my favourite anime is "Jojo's bizarre adventures". This anime is about the descendants of a powerful family, the Joestar family, that fight the forces of Evil in different places and different ages using "Stands". A "Stand" is the projection of the Stand user's soul. It can have many shapes and it allows the Stand user to use superpowers which can be used to defeat the enemies or to help people in need.
Sometimes, when I'm bored, I take a photo at myself and I make it look like I have a Stand.

My passion is dancing. I started dancing when I was 5 years old. Every year we did an essay...I still remember all of them, they are the best days of my life ... I remember the anxiety of forgetting some steps or the entire choreography. I can't forget also the happiness of dancing...
Unfortunately,at the beginning of Middle School, I quit dancing to start volleyball...but I felt that I was missing something, a part of me ...
Finally this year I started doing hip hop again and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made.
Dancing is one of the most important things in my life. It makes me feel free and happy. When I dance I forget everything and everyone; I go to a parallel universe.
Dancing is my way of expressing myself. I would not know how to express my emotions while I dance, I only know that I feel good and I could never do without that.

One of my passion is dancing,because it is a magical moment.
I started dancing ten years ago. I was very young and I started doing pre-dance.  At the age of four I participated in my first dance performance at the          "Teatro Impero" in Marsala. I have beautiful memories related to dancing, such as the day Carla Fracci visited our school. On 3 december 2017, my teacher Elisa organized a show in honor of the Italian dance icon. So I had the honor of meeting her and dancing for her. I have her book, with a dedication, and a photo with her. I have her book,with a dedication ,and a photo with her. I love dancing,because it excites me and  relaxes me at the same time .
To dance with other people and for others is very fun and motivating.  Dance is an art, Choreographers use dance to express emotions, feelings, moods or to tell a story.
I really think that Dance is life!

When I was 11 years old my father advised me to try boxing.  Right away I liked it and I got very good so I started doing several match.  When I play this sport I feel confident, I get rid of stress and my fears.
After six months of training I have been called into the national teams.  It was a fantastic experience full of emotions and anxieties... I had achieved my goal.

I have a passion for dancing. It makes me really happy. My dance school is called: "DANCE EXPRESSION". This year I was going to change and practice also volleyball.
Six years ago my cousin had suggested  me to try dancing and now I thank him  very much.
My trainer is really very good and always stimulates us to do more. She organizes events every year and we are often invited to participate. I have participated in many competitions and especially Regional and National championships in many cities. Every year, between June and July, we end our academic year with an essay at the "Teatro Impero" in Marsala.  Our dance teacher says: "Dance is a poem in which every word is a movement". In the video there is a small part of last year's performance.

My specialty is making cakes.
I cooked various types of cakes: chocolate cake, crunchy, orange cake and tiramisù.

I have many passions. I like dance,music and i like books but my greatest passion is to watch movies and tv series. I am passionate about movies because it is like entering a parallel world. I identify with the characters and it's a beatiful feeling. I imagine to live in different situations trying to understand what I would do. I like all genres, from the most dramatic to the most romantic. Each genre makes you understand different things. The romantic genre makes you see life in a good way instead the dramatic genre makes you see life in a dark way. I think films teach us a lot, they make us understand what really matters are.
I have been watching Tv series since i was little, before i alwaiys watched them with my sister. The first series i saw was "Grey's anatomy" which is one of the most beatiful tv series that I have ever seen,ì. It made me understand how important is to take care of life.In  this quarantine I have seen many TV series and many funny films.

One of my greatest passions is reading. When I was little, I hated reading. I preferred to dance and do so much more, but I've never thought I might get passionate about it.
One day, when I was about ten years old, I was with my grandmother and I was bored; So I decided to take and read a book. After a while I said to her: "GRANDMOTHER, READING IS NOT FOR ME" ... ..
I HATE READING. "But since then I have never stopped.
I am a little crazy, in fact, since last year I started counting them and completing in the book I read in less time. My record is 100 pages read in 30 minutes. Reading puts you in an imaginary, beautiful and relaxing world....I will never stop reading !

I have always liked making cakes since I was a child. When there was a party in my family, like a birthday or for example at Christmas, my mother always cooked cakes for the occasion and I was very happy! I preferred to cook rather than play with my toys. Cooking is my passion and when I cook I feel relaxed. I prefer to cook cakes because I like sweets.
When I see that everyone like my cakes, I feel very proud of myself.
I often follow TV shows like "Bake off" because I take inspiration from them for my future cakes.

In this time I discovered the passion for crime movies. Hitchcock is considered the master of this type and his movies are really masterpieces.
I watched "Psyco" and "Rear Window"on TV and I really like them. That's because the plots are exciting and produce suspence. I didn't use to watch crime movies when I was a child because they  scared me, but now I would like to watch Hitchcok's other movies.
