An Exchange Student from Italy
Hi everybody, I am Alessandro Di Caprio!
I’m 16 years old and I’m from Naples, the third-largest
city in Italy. My city is also where pizza originates and I
know SSC students like pizza.
There are four members in my family: my dad, my
mum, my sister and me. We also have many dogs and cats
as houses in Italy are more spacious.
Let me tell you something about my interests. I have
been a water polo player since I was 7 years old and it’s a
big part of me now. In the year 2015 and 2016, I played in
the national finals. It was very exciting to play
against other nations. Besides, I’m also a
skier. In winter, I
usually go skiing
in the Apennines,
an area about
2 hours from
Naples.

This is my family I love water polo and skiing.
