Hi! I’m a part-time blogger who is interested in football, music, and web development. I’m originally from Italy, but I’m currently based in Toronto, Canada. I started this blog to express my love of the beautiful game and share my thoughts about it with you! I’m an avid fan of Juventus, Toronto FC, and the Italian national team, and also have a soft spot for Napoli and Sassuolo. Feel free to explore my posts and leave a comment or get in touch if you have any suggestions!
