About me

Ever since I attended my first english lesson I knew what I wanted to do with my life. I fell "in love" with the English language and culture at once, and never fell out of it ever after . Subsequently, I decided to start studying languages because I was thrilled by the possibility of interacting with people of various countries in their own language and of reading books in their original version. My excitement when I could at last set foot on the English territory to study my favourite foreign language was undescribable!
I also love German because I am fascinated by German literature and I cherish my memories of the time spent in Heidelberg with great affection. And what about French literature and the musicality of the language itself?
In my first working years my happiness was uncontainable when finally I had the possibility of contacting real clients from all over the world! The firms I worked for were mostly jewellery firms , refrigerator devices constructors , utility machines manufacturers and other kinds of industries typical of my area.
Then I got skilled in translating from English to Italian the artists' projects working for contemporary art galleries , which implies having notions of architecture , literature, poetry , philosophy, music, cinema, and , of course, materials handling.
Then I was asked by firms dealing with agriculture, zootechnics and sanitization to translate technical texts from Italian to French and English.
Afterwards my experiences as a freelancer included as many fields as: medicine, law, IT, poetry, drama, tourism, jounalism, education, video game and web sites localisation, politics, marketing, press releases and literature.
I enjoy going in depth into the meaning of words, while preserving at the same time the languages style and flavour, the things that won't let a translation sound like one.
My life is PASSION FOR TRANSLATION. Just give me something to translate, and I will love it!
