Hello everyone!
I hope you are all having a great week!
I picked four blogs to feature from my last giveaway.
I decided to feature each blog on a separate post this time.
I am really excited to introduce to you
Gaia has a very inspiring blog!
As you can see she is also Gorgeous!

All of these beautiful images used for this post were shot by Gaia!
Tell us a little bit about you and your blog?
First of all, thank you! Thank you Maria for having me here among those other wonderful ladies. I'm a daily reader of your wonderful blog and I'm so happy to be here today!!
I've started my “adventure” in January 2009 and even if the beginning has been a little bit hard I immediately loved to blog daily.
My blog is about me, about all the things I love and about my passions. It's a combination of my favourites things, my life and what I found interesting in life.
I love to share them! I like to take pics and bake, I like to decor and create things with my hands so that's what my blog is about!
I hope to get better and to improve every day! Now I can't stay without it and without all my readers. Among them I've found some truly nice friends and so many talented girls.
Where are you from?
I'm Italian. I was born in Tuscany but I've always lived in Bologna. I have two brother Simone, the oldest and Jonatha the youngest. My mom is from Tuscany and my dad is from Umbria. Two of the most beautiful Italian regions. I've lost my dad 3 years ago and since then I've changed a little. I'm trying to be a good person as he was and I have so much in common with him. He was a journalist and a photographer , a photo reporter... My mom is my example, she's my best friend. I'm a combination of both my parents! I'm lucky because I've a wonderful family!
Gaia shot these beautiful photos of Bologna from her window.
What is your occupation?
This is a good question. I don't work. I was an event organizer for 4 years and one year ago I quit my job. Now I'm looking to do something in my life.I'd love to be an event/wedding organizer again or to open my own store of the things I love, flowers, decors, stationery and many other things.
How would you describe your style?
I don't have a specific style but it is a combination of different styles. I love French Style and north European Style. I love antique market where I find beautiful old things, I love neutral colors, grey, cream, white with a touch of colors. I love stripes and dots.
What is your favorite room in your home?
My favourite room is the living room. Actually my home is little and the living room is the biggest room! I've decorated it with white sofas and old furniture. I have a big trucks and a very big cupboard that I've made it all by myself!
Who has been your biggest role model?
My model? My mom definitely and all the talented women! Since I've begun writing my blog I've met so many talented girls. They are my inspiration and they are my reason to improve my skills and become a good person!
Gaia's beautiful mom
My mom is my hero. She knows how to do everything. She's my strength and my friend! We have a fantastic relations. She's my mom, my friend, she's everything!
What do you hope your readers will gain from your lovely blog?
I don't know. I don't like to be presumptuous but I like to think that they like my blog . I like to think at my blog as a refuge where to escape and where to find beautiful things. I love to meet people and that's a fantastic way to get in touch with new friends!
I think Gaia is a very talented girl!
Don't you love all of Gaia's photographs??
