Born and live in Australia. Has a very Italian family. Fascinated by anything Russian.

"And in the moonlight's pallid glamour,

Rides hugh upon the charging brute,

Hands outstreched 'mid echoing clamour,

The Bronze Horseman in pursuit."

And all through that long night, no matter,

What road the frantic wrench might take,

There would pound with pounderous clatter,

The Bronze Horseman in his wake."

--The Bronze Horseman, Aleksandr Pushkin
