CURRENT MISSION To explore the world (and possibly my own personality) before I get too old :D ABOUT ME I am a normal person who likes to meet and talk to other people. I have a degree in translation studies and thus I would like to find a good job as an interpreter or a tourist guide. I am 26, goth, I love everything dark and mysterious... I enjoy gothic music, art, fashion, architecture... I am very interested in literature and arts in general. My goal is to see as big part of the world as possible, I dream of visiting New Zealand. Currently I live in Italy working as a shop assistant. I love long walks in the countryside at night and I really adore reading gothic novels and poetry by candlelight. I also tried to write some poems in the past, but they have not been published yet. PHILOSOPHY Smile now, cry later... :D Per aspera ad astra. :)- which is latin meaning something like "you have to overcome many problems if you want to be happy"... well, the meaning is not literally this one, but it is a nice metaphor. :D

My Interests
arts - painting: I love the italian painter Caravaggio, the russian contemporary artist Vasilij Nesterenko, and the awesome artist Natalie Shau. I love literature - especially historical books about the history of Ancient Roman Empire, gothic novels and victorian poetry. :D I also love reading classics, to be more specific I adore J.D. Salinger, F. Dostojevskij, J. Heller and of course J.R.R. Tolkien. I love learning languages (I love to talk to people and it is widely known that the more languages one speaks, the more opportunities there are to share with people)and at last but not least I love travelling. I have not been to many places yet, but I really liked those I saw. I am hoping, however, to travel more in the future. :) Well, what else...? I think I blurted out almost everything about me... if you are interested, we can have a more specific chat in person... :D
