About Me
Hello! I’m n1col3 and this is my little corner of the internet.
Certified Nerd™ ✨ chaotic good ✨ lvl. 28 ✨ Italy
I live in Florence with my boyfriend and work as a graphic designer for a company that produces customized materials for ice cream and pastry shops. It’s not a job I’m passionate about, but it pays the rent and bills. I’ve done several jobs before this one, and none of them were something I truly liked. My shattered dream has always been to become a comic artist, but unfortunately I had to give it up to afford living on my own and gain independence.
Now, my dream is to work less and enjoy life doing what I really care about: drawing, writing, learning new things, and doing whatever I feel like. I don’t want to spend my life 8 hours a day in an office (basically selling my soul for money). I hope I’ll manage to get there one day. I have no interest in a “career” — I just want to earn enough to live and have time for the things I love. Life’s too short…
I have two cats who unfortunately don’t live with me — they stay with my parents. Luckily, they don’t live far away, so I can visit them (and my family lol) whenever I want.
My boyfriend and I are the same age and grew up together in a small town. When the time came, we decided to be together, and we’ve never left each other’s side since. In 2025 we celebrated our 10-year anniversary, and it’s been 2 years since we moved to Florence and started living together.
This site was born from the idea of challenging myself with coding and having a personal online space to share my passions and bits of my life. Here you’ll find a bit of everything: my manga collection, my readings, my projects, and my portfolio (always a work in progress). Each topic, of course, has its own section!
I’m trying to build this website completely from scratch, without using any templates, so expect ongoing updates and tweaks.
Enjoy your stay ( •̀ ω •́ )✧
🐾 my pets
Penny, Polly and Ringo
My two cats and my bf's dog ❤ Penny is my baby, an angel - Polly is the crazy calico and Ringo is a sweet cinnamon roll too pure for this world. I love them so much and i miss them soooo much (；′⌒`) I wish I could see them everyday...
What's your favorite way to spend the weekend?
I like to relax — maybe read a book or do something creative like a board game or an embroidery project. When I go out, I enjoy nature walks or shopping with friends.
Beach or mountains?
Mostly mountains, but I don’t dislike the sea.
What kind of music do you listen to the most?
I listen to a bit of everything, but mostly pop-rock and pop-punk.
Favorite band or artist?
I have several, but the first that always comes to mind is My Chemical Romance.
Do you prefer reading books or watching movies?
Hard to say — they’re different experiences, and I love both equally.
Favorite food?
Savory: French fries, pizza, vegetable ramen.
Sweet: donuts, krapfen, crepes.
Do you enjoy cooking or eating out?
I love cooking, but I also enjoy discovering new restaurants when I can.
Which country would you like to visit someday?
Several! Definitely Japan, China, and Korea — I’d also love to visit the Hawaiian Islands and maybe Australia. I’d love to see the northern lights in Antarctica, though that might be impossible (?).
Hot or cold?
I can’t stand the heat — I hate summer, bugs, and humidity. I’ll choose cold weather a hundred times over.
Favorite TV series?
I don’t have just one: The Big Bang Theory (watched at least 15 times), Pretty Little Liars, Supernatural, Lost… I could go on.
Morning person or night owl?
A morning person in summer, a night owl in winter.
Do you prefer spending time alone or with friends?
I love my “me-time,” but I also enjoy hanging out with my friends.
What hobby or activity makes you happy?
Drawing, reading, going to the cinema, eating, scrapbooking… I know how to keep myself entertained lol.
Cats or dogs?
I’d say cats, but I love all animals (I’d love to have a farm — and a horse!).
Something you couldn’t live without?
My boyfriend, my cats, my friends, and my family.
What kind of movies do you like?
I think my favorite genre is sci-fi, but I like almost everything — except horror and pure action movies where they just fight all the time.
A skill you’d like to learn?
Playing a musical instrument, like piano or bass.
Do you prefer traveling or staying home?
I’m a homebody, so I love staying at home, but I always have fun when I travel.
Favorite season?
Autumn.
Favorite color?
Blue, purple, and green.
Describe your perfect day.
I wake up whenever I want because I don’t have to work. It’s cold and rainy outside, and I don’t have to leave the house. The fridge is full, and I can spend the day with my boyfriend watching TV, drinking tea, and drawing until late, knowing I don’t have to work the next day either. No plans, no obligations — just doing whatever I want, including absolutely nothing.
Do you believe in God?
No, I consider myself agnostic even though on paper I’m Catholic, and sooner or later I’d like to formally leave the Church. My approach is more philosophical and spiritual; I don’t want to follow any doctrine except a moral one. “Religion is the opium of the people,” as someone once said…
Do you want a family?
Even though my boyfriend and I have been together for many years, I have no intention of getting married. I don’t believe in marriage as an institution, and as for children, I’m still not sure — I’d rather get a dog or another cat.
