Get to know Alice Podenzana

Which living person do you most admire?

My parents.

What is your greatest extravagance?

Once I spent 10 days in a meditation centre in Myanmar completely disconnected from the outside world and in total silence, meditation around 11hrs per day. And the thing is, I am looking forward to repeating that experience again!

What is your current state of mind?

A lot of ups and downs due to the current COVID-19 situation and the lockdown which limits movements and social interaction. I am learning to be more patient so overall I feel pretty balanced and mostly grateful that everyone I know is safe and healthy.

On a sunny day, surrounded by nature, ideally walking on a beach, with my partner.

Close to the sea.

Honesty.

Creating – it doesn’t matter what, when I create/produce something I feel extremely excited!

What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?

Too many to list!
