Personal
I grew up in Trento, a lovely town in the middle of the Italian Alps. Skiing and hiking are among the things I like the most and I enjoy being in the mountainside in general.
I love baroque music and have a genuine veneration for Johann Sebastian Bach.
I’ve been told that I’m a quite decent cook, and that I’m rarely wrong in the choice of a good restaurant or of a good bottle of wine.
