20 years ago today…

Exactly twenty years ago, I completed my studies at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, earning my degree in Oriental Languages – a challenging journey filled with both obstacles and great rewards, made even more special by the privilege of studying at such a prestigious institution.

This degree was not just a title; it was a real springboard that opened unimaginable doors for me. Right after graduation, I embarked on a new chapter in my life, moving to China, where I lived and worked for nearly ten years. Those experiences enriched me personally and professionally in ways I never could have imagined.

Today, I look back with gratitude and pride, knowing that every step of that journey helped shape the person and professional I am today. I’m grateful for the opportunities I received, the people I met, and the experiences I lived.

To everyone starting or about to complete their academic journey, I’d like to say: believe in the value of your studies and the power of your passions. The paths that open up might just surprise you.
