About me

I have no particular talents but I am a very curious person. I like books, stories, the radio, podcasts, maps, Neil deGrasse Tyson and cosmology. I like to read, to listen to and collect pieces of information, to organize and sum them up to build my own idea of the world.

​

I also like to translate and build bridges between slices of the world that speak and think in different languages. Translation has always fascinated me, ever since I was in high school and used to spend my afternoons learning Latin and translating short texts into Italian. Long before I developed a passion for Lucretius and Cicero, however, I had other passions too. The most important one was building houses, parks and cities with Lego bricks.

​

Translating is a bit like playing with Lego bricks. Every brick is a word, every new construction is a text, and once you are finished, your only wish is to start all over again.
