1. WHAT IS BE MY JOURNEY AND WHY DID YOU START IT?

Be MyJourney is a tool for the modern conscious traveller to access reliable information about sustainable tourism and explore Italy with a mindful approach. I created the brand to meet my personal needs as a passionate traveller! When planning my trips, I am always looking for hidden gem destinations as well as hotels and experiences led by sustainable principles to minimise my impact on the environment, support local communities and grasp the most authentic local traditions.

2. WHO IS AN INSPIRATIONAL WOMAN IN YOUR LIFE AND WHY?

My mum! She instilled the passion for travelling and discovering new cultures in me and she is the fairest person I know!

3. WHAT DOES INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY MEAN TO YOU?

I believe International Women’s Day is a day to call everyone’s attention to raising awareness about women’s equality and good causes led by some female-focused charities like @nominetwork

4. THIS YEAR’S THEME FOR INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY IS #BREAKTHEBAIS - WHAT BIAS ARE YOU CHOOSING TO BREAK?

Looking back on my personal experience, I feel grateful because I have always been part of an equal environment. For all the women who feel discriminated against or are living in unjust circumstances, I stand up to #BreakTheBias for an equal and inclusive world. We are bright and powerful!

5. WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE PIECE FROM MATILDE JEWELLERY AND WHY?

I am passionate about earrings so I would say the Generosity Earrings! I love their traditional style; the Coração de Viana design makes them timeless!
