Nice to meet you. The event looks very good, thank you for the information. I am not sure if I am going to be able to attend because I have an important exam the next day, but I will do my best.
I am Colombian (Paola is a very common name there). I guess you are Italian, am I right?
I hope we can continue sharing information.
Regards,
