About Stella Airoldi: Her studies brought her to Africa where she interviewed refugees in Kampala, Uganda. Some of these women, mainly widows and HIV positive, made jewellery out of recycled paper. In order to have an impact, Stella started to buy this jewellery to sell it to her friends in the Netherlands.

The project evolved: there is now a professional brand, 2 production units and a sponsor project for school fees of the children. When Stella is not in Uganda, she travels the world, alone or with her friends from the digital nomad community.

In 2017 she also organised social workations in Uganda to connect nomads with local people to make a social impact.
