CURRENT MISSION

Learn German in Berlin

ABOUT ME

My name is Fillippo, but my friends call me "Pippo" which means goofy in Italian. I live in a small village called Carona, on Monte San Salvatore near Lugano. After I finished art school in Lugano I went to Lausanne and volunteered helping handicapped people and learned French. Now I am back living in my hometown but this summer I hope to study German in Berlin, and in October I will start Graphic design school in Milan.
