Paola Lapenna

Born and raised in Florence, I have had the chance to live, study, and work abroad – first, by getting a master’s degree in Translation and Interpreting in Seville, Spain, then by working for 3 years in London. Seville has captured my heart with its colors, narrow streets that remind me of Florence, and the cheerfulness of its inhabitants. London has taught me how to survive in such a hectic environment while enriching me with its vibrant and multicultural vibe.

Having the opportunity to be in contact with different cultures during my education and work experience, has really opened my mind and allowed me to understand how much you can learn just by looking at things from a different perspective. I am passionate about learning new languages and always looking to find the next interesting challenge: lately, I have been trying with Romanian and it’s been super interesting!
