Hobbies

Since childhood I have always been an avid reader and make progress both in English and Italian—mainly novels, but I make an effort to learn Italian history—to become more culturally and historically aware.I have learned just enough to be able to see how events in the modern day are still shaped by certain parts of the 19th century, for example.
