Harmony in Connection
A trait and value that particularly represents me is curiosity. It is what allows me to love the places I explore, the cultures in which I immerse myself, the people I meet along the way, the nature I surround myself with ... and even myself.
This curiosity drives me to fully explore my emotions, to look into those internal places where at times I would prefer not to look, to explore those uncomfortable, embarrassing and sometimes painful places. Curiosity takes me there, and with compassion (and courage) I have explored and continue to explore my depths, as I have done during my travels around the world.
When I started traveling I didn't know how long it would last... and now, eight years after I permanently left my hometown, I can safely say that I still don't know when (and if) I will stop ... but I don't think that will happen any time soon.
​
In recent years, however, many things have changed: travel modalities, my motivations, the rhythms, my goals, the people next to me, ... Me.
​
I have changed a lot over the years.
Travel transforms. I've found that embarking on new adventures has been a great and effective way to happily expand my comfort zone!
I found myself on a path of personal and spiritual growth. I had looked for it, I found it, I began to walk it and this journey, as well as traveling, will not stop soon. In fact, what I discovered is that continuing to learn, improve myself, progress, gives me joy, and it does so because it allows me to offer the best of myself to those around me, and allows me to offer the best of myself during the paths/sessions that I offer, workshops, outdoor educational experiences, sailing, professional/non-professional interactions.
I can continue to travel on this path of growth, at a constant, sustainable pace, which allows me to accompany others on the path that they indicate as most suitable for them.
I am Alice, a travel companion you can count on, because in the end, thinking about it, both travel, life, relationships, personal development, are each a journey that we undertake, willy-nilly, consciously or unconsciously ...
Those journeys take us somewhere, so I find it wise to use them in our favor, to put our intention into them.

Will you jump on board? Are you coming too?
A letter to you
This is me
Who I am? I'm Alice, from Parma, Italy, like Parma ham and Parmesan cheese ... (this is really how I introduce myself to people abroad). I'm Alice and I created my own wonderland, the one that suits me.
I found out early enough, when I was about 14 years old, that my future wasn't going to be in Parma. In fact, I had an immense desire to travel, to discover, to broaden my horizons, to learn and know as much as possible, as well as wanting to contribute positively to the world.
Travel power
I travel because I can't avoid it.
I travel because it's like breathing.
I travel because I can't bear not to.
I travel because it's not easy and I like challenges.
I travel because I'm curious, I need new stimuli.
I travel because I have always wanted to do it, I have always wanted to learn from the Others and from the Rest.
I travel because traveling keeps my mind constantly trained, dynamic.
I travel because in the depths of myself, I know that traveling allows me to broaden my mind and open my heart.
I travel because travel for me is connection.
I travel because it allows me to know better, understand, welcome new perspectives on reality.
I travel because the more I travel, the more I increase my ability to love everything I meet along the way, in others and in myself.
I travel because I don't want to be afraid of what I don't know.
I travel to put myself in the Other's shoes, to understand, to increase my ability to feel compassion.
I travel to feel inspired, and to inspire.
I travel to share my experiences with those who have not yet started doing it.
I travel to be able to spread this love I feel and to unite peoples in their diversity.
I travel to be able to share with my children, if I'll ever have children, what I learned during those journeys that have transformed me so much.
I travel and share because it is my way of showing how much it is possible to discover yourself and love Life.
​
I travel ... because I want to.
Vision
I believe in building authentic connections and let curiosity run wild.
I see a world in which our state of fulfillment allows us to be kind, loving humans, respectful and curious of the Other and everything else that is part of our reality.
A world in which other people's freedom, it's not a threat to ours.
A world in which we coexist and spend our energies supporting each other's and working together towards uplifting, healthy goals.
A world in which compassion is key and respect is the foundation of it all.
Mission
To offer support for travels or in the private and professional life of those who feel the need and are determined to act and get involved in the process.
To spread, as much as possible, communication and relational techniques that can improve the life of the individual and the community.
To inspire to live with courage, to consciously choose one's own reality, to contribute to a better world starting from the well-being of the person.
​
To use travel, and human, cultural, natural connections as tools of personal transformation.
