Imaginative, sometimes introvert, always looking for companionship. I begun to travel when I went on my Erasmus to Valencia and, if from Italy to Spain it's not a big jump, starting from this experience I decided to take any opportunity to travel abroad and meet new cultures. Even if I don't like to take the airplane!

I don't like planes that much, but I like walking and sometimes I even get lost during my explorations. If I want to walk into the nature (and I love to), I always have a map or a guide with me.

I'm a positive person and curious about things that make this life funnier and more meaningful. A great pleasure is finding a friend again after a long time or making new ones. I think that laughing helps going through life. What if everybody knows a piece of the greatest secret ever?

Music, Movies, and Books

A selection of books especially marked me: Hesse's The Glass Bead Game, Henderson the king of rain by Bellow, Golding's Lord of the flies, Uhlmann's Reunion, Memories of Adrian by Yourcenar, Artur's Island by Elsa Morante

While I couldn't read a thriller, I'm more relaxed when I have to choose movies

I like pop and rock music and usually I listen to what's on the radio. Do you have favorite music? Give it me to listen!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

written a novel over more than 10 years

Teach, Learn, Share

In the kitchen, I can teach you how to prepare some pasta dishes or desserts that are among my favorite ones...

I can also give you hints and encouragement for conducting a healthy lifestyle, since I like sport and believe that mens sana in corpore sano. But be sure I am not a fanatic!

I love to learn how living in different countries is like in the every day life: customs, food, dreams and so on.

Ah, I enjoy foreign languages and I'm learning German and Russian...
