I work as a journalist, and enjoy it, though I graduated in engineering. I like to write (my articles aside, I write stories, mostly science-fiction, and published some), to read (most anything), to listen to music (a bit of everything, with special attention to prog rock), to cook (and to eat too!), to surf Internet, to watch movies, to play electronic keyboards (badly). In fact I tend to do too many things at the same time, what usually means I don't do anything as well as I should.

I am multi-faceted, coherent, and quirky

My job as a writer in a computer magazine is good, but I'd like to expand my horizons as a journalist in the future. I would like to get my big chance as a story writer too. And I'd like to have a baby, and wouldn't mind to have more money to raise him/her. :)

Writing. Telling jokes. Cooking. Making a mess of a room or desktop. Remembering titles, authors, actors, directors, musicians. Analyzing things.

I'm tall. 192 cm (that makes more than 6' 3"), that's quite a lot, expecially here in Italy. When talking with me, they usually notice how everything you say reminds me of a song, novel, movie or anything else I can quote on the spot.

Foods: I like to try exotic foods, like chinese, japanese, indian and eritrean cooking, but italian is still the best! :P I'd kill for some good dark chocolate, if in need. ;)

Music, books, movies, a computer with a connection to Internet, good food, lots and lots of friends!

Ways to squeeze new things to do in my already full schedule. Plots for new stories. The future. Music. Politics. Daydreaming.

Out with a bunch of friends, watching a movie, playing billiard or simply drinking lots of beer.

I gave my first "real" kiss when I was 21.

You want to chat about books, science-fiction, movies, games, food and cooking, music, politics and life in general. Or if you are girls who find myself quite charming even though I'm happily married. ;)
