About Me

Hello there, welcome to my space and nice to meet you! Thank you for stopping by and for spending a couple of minutes to get to know about me. What can I say, I'm a very eclectic italian boy with lots of interests! First of all I'm a marine biologist and I'm specialized in underwater animal acoustic communication (from crabs to songs of whales). I collaborate with University of Venice, studying the evolution of acoustic communication in fish. But since researching is not that rewarding in Italy I also work as a science and math teacher in a Junior High School (that is 11 to 14 year old children). Then I'm very interested in Japan, its history, its culture, its art...and I also study japanese by myself in order to be able to visit the country someday! I'm a great fan of japanese animation and comic books too. But it's not all...I was the former keyboardist of Kubrick, a nice blend of NIN, Depeche Mode and Orgy tunes. Some of you might already know it since the band has a myspace link which I suggest you to check if you're interested and want to get further informations : www.myspace.com/kubrickband. And for those of you who like sports well you're dealing with a volleyball player too. I played in a team this whole year and now I'm enjoying beach volley with friends....I couldn't live without the sea! I also like soccer, basketball, formula one, moto GP and many other sports :) So do you think you can handle this multifaced italian boy? I hope so and I'll be happy to meet each one of you who wants to get to know me better....feel free to write me a message! ...and sorry for being soo long...have a nice day!
adopt your own virtual pet!
