Personal Information
I was born in the town of Mt Gambier in South Australia. It is famous for it's Blue Lake which supplies the town water in an extinct volcano. Apart from that, the rest of my life was pretty normal - a small Australian country town rasied within an Italian subculture. I now live on Brisbane in the sunny state of Queensland in Australia.
Currently, I enjoy a range of stuff:
  • Rasing my boy Jerson
  • Looking after my Cats
  • Landscaping and Gardening
  • Football (the world game) - Azzurri, Socceroos, Man Utd, Inter Milan, Roar
I was fascinated by Marilyn Monroe as a young adult. As I am now older, perhaps wiser, I enjoy Italian Pop artists (eg Laura Pausini and Giorgia)
