My Activities

I'm studying Informatics at the University of Turin (where I've got the first degree on December 2004) but I like science, history and mathematic too. I have a lot of hobbies and interests but Lego, Football and Trams have a greater place in my life. Moreover I spend a little part of my free time for my activities in Internet. I have a Store (Bric-k-one) on BrickLink (about this store see this page too).

My LEGO Story

I was born in Turin in the year 1982. When I was jung, I used to spend my time playing with trains and Lego. My first Lego town set was the police Hq 6386 that my parents gave me for my 7th birthday. One year before I built my first town of Lego basic bricks (it was very little: it was made up of only two 32x32 t-road-bases).

Than, my collection grow up: every year I bought or received as gift, Lego sets. My first train was the 7745 but I played very few with it because a couple years later I received the Metroliner with the new rail type where the old train motor didn’t work. So I waited some years before upgrade the 7745 to the (better) 9V system.

My favourite themes are town and train. But I like technic, space and castle too. I dislike the new juniorized sets. My favourite set is the 6399 Airport Shuttle.

In the year 2005, I've built with another LEGO fun a replica of the rackrail line station in Turin and it had a great success so that it was displayed into the real station for over 18 months.

I'm the promoter of the LEGOfest Torino and I've organised the event in the years 2005, 2006 and I'm going to organise it in the 2007.
