Of Salento origins, I have lived and worked in Rome since 2005. I learned to read when I was 2-3 years old. I had to wait until 4 to write. Since then I haven’t stopped. Writing is my life, my knowledge, my memory. As well as my job. That helps me grow and learn. To never feel like I have arrived, to always be hungry for knowledge.
