I grew up in a small town in the North of Italy, but I love traveling and I’m always ready to leave. I studied languages and international relations, then my passion for writing led me to the London School of Journalism. I like spending my time in the countryside and I’m keen on horse-riding, which I’ve been practicing for many years.
