I discovered the Net in February 1995 and visited Internet World 1995 in London. Computers are my hobby. My first computer was a 48Kb Spectrum, back in 1984, one of the best and most useful presents ever received in my whole life!
I was born in the United Kingdom but have always lived in Italy. On 12 September 1998 I got married to Alessandro. Since then we've been living in Basilicanova, a small town on the outskirts of Parma, in the Emilia-Romagna region, but I grew up in the mythical city of Rome (click here for the Rome City Council Web Page, which also contains some tourist information). If you're thinking of visiting the Eternal City, the best time to come is from September to June, because it can get very hot there during the summer months. Click here to get an accurate forecast.
My main passion at the moment is Argentine Tango. Email me if you want info on where to dance in Rome or visit my teachers' page! If you are in Buenos Aires and want the best teachers, visit the website of Erica y Adrián, the most talented dancers you'll ever see. You can also book a lesson with them the next time they are on tour.
