Someone recently said I am like "a vintage sports car with a modern engine"... not sure how it was meant but I took is as a compliment! I was born and raised in Italy but I don't drink red wine. I travel a lot for work but I love to be home and do movie marathon sundays. Or go skydiving. I'm a maniac for latin ballroom dancing, I collect Cary Grant movies, I read Pride and Prejudice a thousand times, my guilty pleasure is tater tots, and I drive a stick. Fast. Did I mention I also collect speeding tickets? Friends are my family and the true ones I count on one hand - loyalty is priceless. I love shoes. I REALLY love shoes, and I don't care how uncomfortable my 5 inch heels are. Judgmental, arrogant people that just like to hear the sound of their own voice, on the other hand, not so much. I love to do the dishes but I don't like putting them away. I can make a mean tiramisu. I believe respect is earned and I will work for it. Most importantly: I like a drama-free zone, a witty sense of humor, purpose and drive, understated romance, to be surprised (in a good way) and to be challenged. Oh, and flattery works too!
