Description
Hi, ciao! I'm Laura :)
I come from Sardinia, Italy, but I spent the last 8 years living in Bologna, where I volunteered in an important film festival and I studied film studies.
I used to work in a bookshop, a job that I loved, but I'm now taking a break to travel, learn languages, meet people from around the world.
I'm currently planning to explore Iceland, and I'm trying (not very succefully at the moment) to learn icelandic.
I read a lot of books, I watch a lot of films, and I love to talk about it.
I'm also learning photography, and looking for help 📷
Oh, and of course I can teach you italian :)
If you want to know more about me, feel free to ask :)
