I would like to thank the colleagues from PGR3 office, who have made my PhD so much better. I will remember those Friday nights forever, although my life expectancy is now shorter. Thanks to the UK for welcoming me and showing that it is possible to live in a multicultural society where the differences are not a weakness but instead a resource. Also, thanks for giving us the Spice Girls. Thanks to all the people who have made the three months in Japan some of the happiest of my life and to Japan for being my second home and for its great culture. Thanks to all the people that I have met around the world in the past 4 years, who shared their culture and opinions contributing to open my mind and making my life more interesting, you are worth this PhD. Last but not least, my deepest gratitude goes to my parents who taught me to love life and be passionate and to my friends who are my roots and saved me in the darkest moments of this PhD.
