Introduction 50% American + 50% Italian = girl with a passion for life. Bleached blonde with a Mediterranean spirit. Air Force brat, now an Air Force spouse. Grew up mainly in Italy and Germany but call Italy "home." Fluent in Italian and not so bad in German. Totally adaptable in any situation. Have spent almost 30 years of my life overseas. After spending these last 17 years in Europe, 2008 kicked off with a new adventure --Hawaii. Married to a kickass guy named Chuck. Mom to a longhaired Chihuahua named Vixen and recently added to our fur-family with another Chihuahua, Velvet. Catholic. Only child. Optimistic and energetic. Impulsive. Stubborn as a mule. Relentless. Insatiable traveler. Loyal friend for life. Amateur photographer who "captures the moment" with a picture. Talkative! Bender of rules, but just a little bit. Crazy about the beach.
