I'm a languages addicted! Besides my mothertongue Italian, I can speak English, French, Portuguese and German. I'm currently trying to go on with my Russian studies and trying to learning Japanese, both by myself. Anything in one of these languages will surely make me happy!

Feel free to write me your notes/PMs in any of these languages and if you need some help with your Italian I will be glad to help you!
