This is a blog dedicated to the women from the Morbelli family, which I was lucky enough to be born into. The family history started in Tuscany, Italy and migrated to some places around the world including Sao Paulo, Brazil. Italian families are known to be strong, mind oriented and loud. Mine is exactly like that but what makes us unique is that the power is with the women.

The women are the ones to carry the family name, to make or break the rules, to fight for what they believe in. They are the rocks of the foundation that holds the home. The net that keeps everyone together. Like most women, there are many sides to them, hard or soft, big or small, kind or not so much at times, fun and playful, they are the representation of women today. They keep up with the modern world without losing their roots.

And it’s to them and for them that I am writing these lines, to all of you girls out there who are not afraid of being yourselves, of crossing oceans and following your dreams.
