Interests

Being from California, I'm quite open minded and enjoy having conversations with people from all over the world. After food, I love to play music while I'm at home and when I'm cooking or just hanging out. I'm not always available throughout the day due to my soccer and work schedule but I can offer some useful information and spots to visit in Bergamo!

My music taste is too long to describe here. You'll just have to get to know me a bit better to understsand just how broad my love for music is. One day, I can be listening to Drake and then the next day, I can be blasting Bach while I cook. It really depends on my mood. Lately, I've been really into SZA.
