Welcome to my corner on the web... My name is Alessandro Dotti Contra and this is my virtual home.
This site is about me, my professional experiences, my interests and some other things. In some way, it is nothing more than a repository... I just tried to make it look a little better.

Why hyboria
Probably some of you already know the popular fantasy character Conan the Barbarian. I'm a fan of sword and sorcery novels, and I really enjoy the art of Robert E. Howard. This is what inspired me for the name of this site.
