Since then, my life of an urban punk girl completely changed, and I devoted my time to rock, ice climbing and alpinism – which I likes the most – and training for these activities. Soon I had the chance to climb in the Caucasus, Andes and Himalayas. Soon I was curious about the effects of altitude, so in 2006 I decided to climb Cho Oyu (8201m) alone, a big effort and adventure for someone who at the time lacked the experience!!! Now, my preferences go to combine exploratory alpinism with altitude, the pleasure of adventure, of exploring new terrain with the extra-effort that altitude brings. Since I don’t have big mountains around, I’m always anxious and working hard to put together the next expedition, normally starting to dream of it before the last one finishes…I’m insatiable with mountains!!! Apart from mountains, I work as a geotechnical geologist…rocks are definitely a big part of my life! Rocks are what I am, what makes my body, my soul and my spirit move. hide
