Ciao, I'm an Italian girl. I'm not autistic, I joined this forum because I'm intrested about this subject.
I don't think I'll post a lot, because, as you can see, I can't speak english very well :oops: ...
Anyway, nice to meet you all!

Not too many, to be true. It's quite rare young people know and like opera. I admit I don't like it.
