ABOUT ME

"Dopo una giornata di cammino, i due si fermano stanchi su una duna ad ammirare il deserto nella notte, bellissimo nella sua maestosità, ma bellissimo soprattutto perché "ciò che abbellisce il deserto", disse il piccolo Principe, "è che nasconde un pozzo in qualche luogo…". Di qualunque cosa si tratti, quello che fa la sua bellezza è invisibile"
Il piccolo principe (The Little Prince)
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.

Well,mmm..I was born in a small and sunny village in the south of Italy. The seaside, the smooth sea, the warmth of that genuine people, songs with friends..rides in the countryside, children smiling, trips by bicycle and the true taste of bread...all these things are my roots.
I am a flower blooming from this ground!!
There I grew up helping my Grandparents with small things in their little farm, cooking good food with my parents,reading fairy tales and books, chatting and playing,dreaming for the future: a a society with values of humility, equality and where smiles and tears are our true soul.
Then the University..studying hard..and new cultural experiences, meeting people, new paths and the feeling to social commitment.
After that destiny lead me in Torino..a place i love so much..where i live, work continuing to grow up :')
