    Hi Everybody,

    My name's Matt, I am 24 yo and I am really glad I have found this forum and all these great people. I have been stumbling around for the last week before finally deciding to join.

    I am half italian/half british (real name's Matteo, but everybody calls me Matt!) and I now live in the UK after 18 years of being in Italy. The only thing I really miss is the weather! :grin:

    I love reading books (last one is Dance with Dragons part.1 by GRR Martin), I absolutely love videogames, not the shooty shooty type but RPG and strategy.
    I like art and animations, I went to Art high-school and had lots of fun. I carry it on every now and then but a little bit rusty at the moment.
    I also like modelling 18th century ships & galleons, not a very common hobby but I love it!

    I have a very shy and quiet personality, I mostly prefer to listen than to speak. Not sure about my orientation just yet, but I am open minded and respect others' decisions.
    I will share some things and help others where I can, I might need some time though.

    So, don't mind me, love to be part of this great community. :slight_smile:

    Matt

    Oh, thank you for your welcomes :slight_smile:

    Your reply really did put a smile on my face, somewhere in this world there is someone you share more things than you think! What a small world

    Aww! I'm glad I was able to make you smile even with someone so small as a reply in which I uncovered the truth about our similarities. THAT makes me smile right back. :slight_smile:
