Let's start from my geographical story because places can say a lot about us
They can’t explain everything, but they might shape our identity
The first step is Romanziol, a locality in Noventa di Piave in the province of Venice, Italy, where I lived until I was 18. Romanziol shaped my story, it’s located in an area marked by rural fields and small industrial zones
Padua is the second place on the map and a cornerstone of my story. It’s the city where I studied, lived, and discovered community values. At Collegio Mazza, where I lived and studied for 4 years, I wasn’t just a student but part of a group.
Then came Leuven. I studied at KU Leuven for 6 month and learned that "home" is more about belonging than geography. This experience confirmed my identity as a European citizen.
After two work experiences I started my PhD to write my own papers, my projects, and bring my science to life. I was chosen for a Marie Curie PhD project split between the University of Groningen and ICIQ and this is the last map. For now!
After having brought to life to some projects, for my third year of the PhD I moved to Tarragona. ICIQ and Tarragona have been an amazing chapter of this journey which gave me opportunity to make my syntehtic background stronger.
