My   Story   So   Far!

me drinking fake whiskey

Hello! My name is Nicolò Tommasi. I was born in 1982 in Verona, Italy, and more precisely in San Michele Extra. I had a normal childhood, with hiking, biking, kicking the ball and, sometimes, popping a few firecrackers. During my educational development, I immediately identified music, painting and computer science (especially the development branch) as my main interests.

I started playing guitar when I was very young, fascinated by a live video of Black Sabbath on the telly. Having been in contact with guys who shared the same passion, I formed the first rock band almost immediately.

From that moment on I never stopped playing and composing music, until today. Thanks to it I have been able to learn and improve languages, especially English, developing a real passion for idioms and jargon.

Music was not the only determining factor in language learning, in fact it was also thanks to video games that I greatly expanded my vocabulary skills.

Over the years I have used the computer intensively to create images, posters and, in a couple of cases, websites for my projects. This has allowed me to become familiar with the main software and operating systems.

I lived in Verona until the age of 26 with my father (now deceased) and my mother. In 2008 I packed my bags and moved to Berlin, where I still live today.

In 2010 I discovered the Vipassana meditation technique which led me to undertake an intense and very rewarding volunteer path. For this reason I lived and travelled for three years between various meditation centres in Europe and India.

My goal now is to finish a training course as a web developer and then look for work, with the prospect of travelling and working where I prefer, settling in more places, absorbing their culture and language.

In this section you can view all the areas in which I can put my abilities into use.
For an easy visualization I decided to divide the field of my skills into three sections:

Here is a list of all frameworks, tools, libraries and anything else I use to develop web content and applications.

I love to draw and paint, especially on the computer. Recently I started to dabble in pixel art using various programs including Aseprite and Ms Paint.
This very website is a tribute to Ron Gilbert's work, which I am a huge fan of.
Here is a small list of works made by me, which can also be viewed on my Instagram profile.

Given my expertise in the language field, I offer various services including written translation of texts and support in learning an idiom (I may also be available to participate in tandem sessions). I am familiar with tools like Deepl, Google Translate and text editors such as Ms Word and Open Office.
Here a brief overview of my language skills level (with the exception of italian, which is my mothertongue):
