I’m a PhD in Medieval History currently living out my passion as a history and language teacher, while also keeping busy with freelance writing and translation work. My deep fascination with languages is really the thread that connects everything I do, from my academic research to the way I experience the world. I’ve lived in Rome for twelve years now, though the city actually won me over the very first time I stepped foot here as an eighteen-year-old. Even after all this time, my favorite thing to do is simply wander through the streets; there is always a hidden detail or a new corner to discover that I haven’t seen before. When I’m not diving into the past or teaching, you can usually find me lost in a good book, staying active with sports, or out on a long walk, always looking to satisfy my curiosity and discover something new.
