Sebastiano Gadolini
About Me:
I moved from Italy to Reading one year ago! I’m a chemist in the day and an amateur chef/barman in the evenings. These jobs are very similar, when I am in the lab I just have to remember to not lick the spoon!
Science, food, art and hiking are my passions. I am more than happy to mix also these topics. Have you ever wondered what does art chemistry mean? Or how food can be prepared on the peak of a mountain?
