Nurturing well-being
I relax by listening to various types of music, singing, and dancing. I’m passionate about skiing and windsurfing—perhaps because they offer moments of greatest freedom and liberation. I eagerly immerse myself in literature: history, essays, and contemporary works. I love visiting museums, especially those featuring Impressionist paintings by Claude Monet and Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Surrealist and Cubist works by Salvador Dalí, and Vincent van Gogh’s masterpieces.
In everyday life, I appreciate multicultural cuisine — I enjoy cooking and baking, which helps me unwind.
Privately
I am a mother of three active and wonderful teenagers and a companion to our mischievous Cavalier King Charles Spaniel”. I also use my potential in the family area by supporting the development of passions and talents in the younger generation.
With deep gratitude I joyfully welcome you into my space….
