Born under the looming shadow of the Madonnina, I adopted Liguria as my homeland, and, despite all they say about it being a miserly land, was given sunshine, rocks and contrasts in exchange. With the sea inside I migrated both in and out of Italy. Then in the gentle Tuscan countryside I became a "expert in communication", part by chance, part desire. Music is my main love - Sting, The Police, jazz - stirring my feet, brain and heart all at once. So, until a suitable partner should come along, I rock, roll, bang and shag with my reliable old broom. Voilà.
