About me

I graduated at a Scientific Lyceum (which is a type of Italian high school designed to give students skills in Mathematics, Physics, Biology and Chemistry) and last year I started to attend the Modern Literature faculty in Genoa - after all I didn't like sciences that much.
Anyway, I am really fond of what I study - I also love writing, I find it a good way to get things off my chest and sharing experiences.
I love meeting new people, getting to know them and learning to understand them, in particular when they're different from me.
I am not a very athletic person, even though I have played football for more than ten years.
During the last years I have taken part in different experiences: I participated to a Rethoric competition (gaining 500 euros!), I occasionally worked as a waiter and gave a hand in several voluntary organisations in my city. Thanks to these experiences, I found out that I am able to fit in with any type of situation and that I can cope with every difficulty working hard with a smile.

Skills

I study literature at university so besides the language I can easily teach customs and practices of my country.
Furthermore, I have got a large garden in my house, with fruit trees and a vegetable garden, so I am basically used to stay in touch with nature, handling every sort of gardening.
I am an open-minded and helpful person - I learn fast and working hard is not a problem to me.
I have got some difficulties with English but I really hope that this experience can help me to improve my knowledge.

Additional info

I am not a smoker, I have a drivers license, I am not a vegetarian and I have no allergies.
