About me
Based in Mestre, Venice. I studied languages at Florence University, then moved to Rotterdam, the Netherlands for some 16 months. Afterwards, I spent one month in Hangzhou, China, where I resumed my Chinese language studies and finally moved to Venice where I finished a master course in translating and interpreting (English-Chinese-Italian). I am currently working as a linguistic and cultural mediator for Venice's Municipality. Moreover, I am a licensed tour leader in English and Chinese. I also work in French and Spanish. I mainly do daily walking tours in Venice and Florence, but I also organise longer journeys.
I am also a musician and a singer-songwriter. I play guitar and piano, with a loop station and a performance pad. I write songs in English and Italian and perform them in live concerts around Italy and abroad.
