Hei. Moi. Minun nimeni on Arnaldo. Olen Italialainen. Asuun Suomessa, Tampereella. Tulin Tampereelle kesäkuussa 2017. Tuulin perheen kanssa Indonesiasta. Indonesia on tosi iso maa Aasiassa. Asuin Jakartassa, Indonesian pääkaupunki. Mikä minä teen? Miksi asuin Indonesiassa? Yliopistossa Italiassa opiskelin taloustiede.
