I've been working for 6 years in the travel industry: first as a meeting and incentives organizer, more recently as a reservations and sales manager at a nice hotel in Sardinia.

At the same time I've never given up my strong passion for foreign languages and my endless curiosity in the search for the right word in the right context.

That's why I'm currently attending a 1-year course in specialized translation ENG > ITA (expected completion: January 2013).
