About Me

I'm an Italian girl who's studying foreign languages at the university, so I love travelling and meeting new people from different countries and of different cultures. I also love going to the cinema, reading, writing, hanging out with friends.

When you rate me, please leave some words to let me know if you really liked what I sent you, especially for flat mail and packages swaps. I love when you give me nice ratings but it will be nicer if you tell me something more, because when I choose items for you I always ask myself if you will like them and what will you say when you receive them. Thank you

Comment: Ah, fond memories of dorm life. I think it's hilarious that you have a bottle of olive oil in front of you - you truly must be Italian!

I tried the recipe you sent to me today (the Frittata di Spaghetti one) and I just wanted to let you know that I loved it! The omelette all fell apart when I tried to turn it in the pan, but it still tasted great. Thank you! :)

You are a very interesting young lady! I think its great you posted a bit about your mom.

My wife would love to visit you in Italy. I'd love to read your blog too. Where can I find it.

Other than movies, you and I don't have a lot of similar tastes. I love writing and reading though. I bet you would love BookCrossing if you never heard of it.

Well I look forward to swapping with you.
