My name is Laura and I'm a 23 years old girl from Palermo, Sicily. I've been living in Naples since 2012 to study at L'Orientale University . I love found out about different customs and traditions around the world, that's why I graduated in Linguistic and cultural mediation. I am going to get a Master's in Languages and intercultural communication in Euromediterranean area. I want to travel several countries, improve languages and know people with several interests.
