Hi! I was born in catania ( you know? Etna, Arancini? :)) where i studied chemistry. I play guitar and music is my passion. I'm studying photography and i'm really into it. I spend most of my freetime hiking in the dolomites and for this summer 2019 i'm planning a trekking over 6 days in the dolomites! Join me if you dare :DDD I like doing sports like MTB, waterpolo and some football as well. I also like doing some gym sometimes.
