About me

Gender Female
Industry Arts
Occupation Painter and restorer of antiques
Location West Chester, Pennsyvlania, United States
Introduction I was born in Naples (southern Italy). The Amalfi coast is my favorite place in the world and I miss it very much. Those blue waters and rocky landscapes...I don't miss the food because we are good at cooking! I don't miss my Italian friends, I like American people. They have a good heart. I found new friends when I returned to the faith. I was raised in a watered-down Catholicism and I sympathized with Buddhism in my youth. My husband and son are both atheists and philosophers.
Interests I'm a figurative artist and a restorer of antique paintings. I can translate from English into Italian and I like to write in both languages.
