The project
A concrete commitment to the local area
Ever since I was a child, I’ve been going on vacation with my family to Puglia (near Otranto). Over the past ten years, my husband and I have been to Puglia many times, exploring and learning to love the entire “heel” of Italy. Puglia, and Salento in particular, has become a place close to our hearts. The landscape, the food, and the sea—and the many wonderful people we’ve had the chance to meet—we would never want to lose any of this. When we first saw the extent of the olive trees killed by Xylella, we were shocked and saddened. That’s why adopting 50 olive trees in Salento is a matter close to our hearts. If we can do something to help restore this wonderful landscape, we’re happy to do it.
Storytelling
The story of the project
Communication is important; nothing works without it. And the right message at the right time can go a long way. At its best, it evokes positive emotions that become unique memories that enrich our lives. That is exactly what I want to achieve through my work.
