    At home

    Activities i am interested in:

    I am currently living in the north of Italy, in my home town, working as a teacher of English as a second language in Modena, enjoying my passions and hobbies, such as reading, knitting, dancing.

  • Description

    I am a 26-year-old girl with a degree in Foreign Languages and Translation and Language Teaching, but with a thousand passions.
    In life, I like to pursue joy: for this reason, I have been travelling alone for many years. I have done several Erasmus trips that have taken me far from home, to Scotland, Barcelona and Lisbon.
    I have been to Sweden and Iceland on international volunteer programmes, where I discovered my passion for the Nordic countries, their landscapes and way of life.
    I really enjoy reading, writing, making collages, dancing, theatre, listening to indie music, knitting, baking bread and cakes.
    I love going to the mountains and being able to enjoy simple things.

    More details about my language interests
    I studied several languages at university: English, Spanish and Russian, but also French. I also did an Erasmus in Barcelona, where I learnt to understand, read and comprehend Catalan. I also did an Erasmus in Lisbon, where I started learning Portuguese. I am also very passionate about the Nordic languages and I am fascinated by their literature, which I read in Italian translation. I also like Nordic music (especially Icelandic) but I am also fascinated by languages such as Gaelic, Irish and Scottish, and their music.
