She supported and supports some good causes, like Primtings Museum and Pixel to Pixel Foundation. Another of her concerns is keeping memory of beautiful SL places that disappears: for this purpose, she manages a Flickr group, open to everyone, called Lost SL.

She can speak English, Spanish and Italian (her native language), understands French and a little bit of German and Portuguese.

Melusina lives in Lunula, Heterocera continent, SL mainland, in a pretty big house on the lagoon where she owns other houses too. Curious about all kind of vintage, from clothes to cities, when not at work, she loves riding and wandering around in SL by train or through public roads on mainland, exploring and taking photos.

She likes good friendships, quality fashion, fine arts, exploring, riding her great horse Alpha, petting her lovely kittens Hug, Mercury, Hanaya, Tamara and Silvestro and her Lord Labrador Ulisse.
