Hello! I am Giovanni Bruno, a merchant from the city of Amalfi. I’m 34 years old and I’ve been a merchant now for 10 years. I grew up in a poor family in Venice and moved to Amalfi when I was little. Since then, I was raised to be a merchant and raise my status in society. So far, I’m not very successful. I’ve taken a few trips to some other city-states. However, I’ve never travelled as far as I am with my next trip. For my next trip, I am travelling back to Venice. It’s a very long voyage, around 1200 miles. However, I am determined to make this trip the best that it can be. I’ve been planning this now for almost 2 months and I’ve gotten a crew together with a lot of goods that I’ll be selling in Venice. I’ve imported rare spices from India and purchased lots of fresh produce from local markets. I hope I can make a good profit off of these goods because they were not cheap to buy. If this trip fails for me, I may be bankrupt. However, if this goes well for me, I may be able to take trips farther around the world. The journey to Venice may be very long, but I’m sure that it will be rewarding for sure. I’m ready for this voyage, and I’m excited for my biggest adventure yet.
