FOMATPLAY okay! thank you Savin for being here.
it's a pleasure to have you and thank you for joining the project.
um can you tell us something about your journey? so what brought you here in Italy? SAVIN so, I was born in the US, Brooklyn, and then I grew up in Portland, Maine, but my father is from Naples, Italy.
I used to come here to visit the rest of the family because he was the only one that immigrated to the US and everybody else decided to stay here.
so uh it was never a completely foreign place for me but it still is kind of a place in the middle; um and then when I graduated university I... after study journalism; I wanted to do journals up here because I felt that um...
English language media in the west um was kind of restricted on some of the things they covered in Naples and especially the southern part of Italy and so I wanted to write stories about um...
haha I wanted to write stories about the south and Naples and um...
In 2018 I started to come here back and forth; but then that was not a sustainable thing to do to fly back and forth all the time; so I decided to move here in the fall 2019.
FOMATPLAY and are you coming to stay? SAVIN um... ha ha.
next; for at least the next couple of years yes. um but there are a few things that might make living here in the long term a little bit more difficult.
FOMATPLAY for example? SAVIN I would like to have children at some point. um and being a gay man, the government of Italy has made that basically impossible, impossible, um...
and so... at some points I would have to make the decision to try to find some way around it which still at this point in time doesn't look like it's possible hopefully the laws will change um but if they don't it doesn't...
you know, I like...
it's a part of my life that I would like to have but it looks like it's not possible in this country so...
FOMATPLAY and how was it for you to come here and live permanently in in Naples? SAVIN it wasn't too difficult because I'm very, very fortunate to have Italian citizenship so uh that major step was, you know, already done for me. um (más...)
