🌍 My adventure began in Vimercate, a small town nearby Milan (north of Italy). From there, always in love with languages and cultures, I moved to Venice to crack on my undergraduate degree in Chinese language, society and culture at Ca Foscari University of Venice. 🌹🛶 Little did I know how this pursuit would have shaped my future! 🌟 During the second year of University, I won a scholarship that allowed me to study in one of the most prestigious university in China (Fudan University) and live in Shanghai for a full year! 🎉🌆 During that period, I got the chance to travel around Asia and to fell in love with each one of the countries I have visited. 🌏❤️ After that amazing and life - changing experience, I set my sights on the United Kingdom, where I embarked on an exciting chapter of my life: living in Birmingham and work as an au pair for 1 year while learning and studying English to get admitted at SOAS University of London. The hard work payed off and I got accepted at SOAS, enrolled into a Master's degree in International Management. During my Master's program, I became passionate about Consumer behaviour & Market Research. Starting my career in Market Research back in 2021, I am now working as a Senior Market Research analyst at Sky. While I do enjoy my 9 - 5 job, I do enjoy more travelling, organise travels and getting to know people that like me, have a real passion for travelling and discovering the beautiful world we live in!

I am currently working as a market research analyst at Sky but I would love to dedicate more of my time to something I do genuinely love more - travelling!

I love traveling because it brings me peace ✈️🌍 When I return from a trip, I'm always so excited to share all the amazing things I've seen, the friends I've made, and the memories I've created that I am always looking forward to the next one 🧭🌟
