What Elsa love to do : Everything related to my passions (I like to represent what I see or imagine through photography or painting or drawing or writing), I like to read, doing yoga and meditation, discovering and immersing myself in a place I don't know, decorating with paint, associating images, handling materials and colors, gardening, planting, observing plants and birds, taking care of animals, feeding them, playing with them when possible, cooking. What I really like is to doing things according to my instinct in a free way. I also like riding my motorcycle and swimming, watching fishes, looking at the stars and clouds, boating, anything that can give me that feeling of freedom. I also love to observe the people of a country I don't know and to immerse myself in a new daily life that becomes mine during a trip.
