Welcome
Hi! Welcome to my new website and journal.
I used to blog on Tumblr in my teenage years — it was fun, full of private details and embarrassing. This time it's going to be different. I won't quit the puns though, NEVER! You were warned.
A few weeks ago I moved to the UK, in Sheffield. Pretty big life change. I was here before for short visits, so I know a few things about the city. It is famous for its steel production, Arctic Monkeys and Sean Bean.
Having moved here from Italy, the change in architecture, climate and food is huge. There is a different type of beauty to the UK landscape, which I've pleasantly noticed in some TV shows on Netflix (The Stranger, After Life). I found it so refreshing and longed to get to know Brits' inside jokes. It's going to take a while. First, I have to make sense of the Yorkshire accent.
What is already crystal clear to me is that people here love Sheffield. The love for their city and community is contagious, unlike anything I've encountered before. I've got lists and tips with things to do and see here. The excitement rubbed off on me.
I'm looking forward to discovering Sheffield through photos. I'll let you know all about it. Make sure to read it! Bookmark my journal or follow me on Instagram for updates.
Thank you for being here!
Cheers (is this how cheers works?).
