    Do I need to know Italian to work as a marketing expat in Italy? --- Ciao! Siamo Gabriele e Angelique. Benvenuti nel nostro podcast! We are passionate language learners, and we record for you the language learning podcast we’d like to play when we learn new languages. Our podcast, produced in mixed English and simple Italian, helps beginners and intermediate Italian language learners enjoy engaging content about Italy, its language, and its culture from day 0 of their language learning journey. --- Marketing in Europe can be challenging because of its multicultural environment. Rather than seeing it as an obstacle, one can turn it into an opportunity. This is what you will discover today through our conversation with Marta Romão. --- For a Portuguese, Marta had a unique childhood. Having been born in Lisbon in the 90s, she lived in Belgium with her family until she was six. This experience opened her world. Instead of pursuing an average Portuguese lifestyle, she ventured out of her home country by working as a multilingual marketing professional in Spain, and in Italy. In this episode, we chatted with Marta about her life, her experience in the Italian marketing scene, and working with Italian tech start-ups in Rome. --- This episode will conclude our second season of the Italian Escape Podcast. We will take a break and launch our third season after the summer. If you want us to cover any topic of interest, email us, and we’ll happily talk about it when we return.

Our podcast in mixed English and simple Italian helps beginners and intermediate Italian language learners enjoy engaging content about Italy, its language, and its culture from day 0 of their language learning journey. --- Language learning can be daunting, especially if you seek perfection. In today’s episode, we look at another way of learning Italian with the help of a language co-pilot. That’s where Andre comes in. Born and raised in Chihuahua, Mexico, her love for music and singing led her to unknowingly teach herself English at the age of six and sparked her curiosity for other languages. When she turned 18, she decided to do her first solo trip to Florence. Little did she expect that this will change her life in a massive way. Since then, she has met countless frustrated students who feel like they have no talent for learning languages. Because of this, she created an easy, fun, and empowering method called, co-piloting. Listen NOW to our conversation and learn about Mo Parlo and what it means to be a language co-pilot. --- Would you like to try out Mo Parlo's course?

Because of these long term/unfirable jobs, Italian companies are struggling to keep innovating as quickly as other countries within and outside the EU. In this episode, we discussed its cultural significance, its history, and its influence in Italy today.

    28 - Una chiacchierata con Kenny, the Something Polyglot | Do I need a native speaker as my language teacher?

    Is a native Italian the best choice for a teacher? Maybe not. --- Ciao! Siamo Gabriele e Angelique. Benvenuti nel nostro podcast! We are passionate language learners, and we record for you the language learning podcast we’d like to play when we learn new languages Our podcast in mixed English and simple Italian helps beginners and intermediate Italian language learners enjoy engaging content about Italy, its language, and its culture from day 0 of their language learning journey. --- In our previous episode with Heidi (Ep. 25), she shares with us one of her secrets to learning Italian, which is by having two types of teachers – one who is native, and one who isn’t. By having both native and foreign tutors, you get to have the best of both worlds – one who teaches you how Italians speak, and another who teaches you why Italians follow rules that do not match your native language’s rules. In this episode, we sat down with Kenny, also known as “something polyglot” on the web. From his nickname, you can tell that his biggest passion is all about languages. We learned about Kenny’s life story, exchanged with him our thoughts on language learning and explored the reasons why and when you should consider getting a non-native speaker as your language teacher. --- If you like our podcast, leave us a review in Apple Podcast or on Spotify and join our Patreon community.

    27 - L’avventura coloniale italiana | Do you know about the time when Italy tried to rebuild the Romans Empire?

    Do you know about the time when Italy tried to rebuild the Roman Empire? --- Ciao! Siamo Gabriele e Angelique. Benvenuti nel nostro podcast! We are passionate language learners, and we record for you the language learning podcast we’d like to play when we learn new languages. Our podcast in mixed English and simple Italian helps beginners and intermediate Italian language learners enjoy engaging content about Italy, its language, and its culture from day 0 of their language learning journey. --- Slowly but surely, more people are becoming more aware of the dark past of colonialism that was led by countries such as Spain, Portugal, the English, and the French, to name a few. But what about the Italians? In this episode, Gabriele recounts the highlights or milestones – be it the good and the bad - that took place during one of Italy’s almost forgotten chapters of its history – its colonialist history in Africa. Sadly, many choose to neglect this part of history and associate it with fascism. It turned out that Italy started its colonial history by purchasing the Bay of Assab in 1869, 52 years before fascism started. --- As an Italian, Gabriele believes that we should not recount these episodes because we are proud of having dominated and conquered other populations. Disclaimer: Nothing to be proud of over there. Instead, we must remember the strength we showed and the challenges we overcame as a reminder of what we can achieve in the future when fighting for a more fair and just goal. ---- If you liked our episode with Garibaldi, you should not miss out on this!

    26 - Una chiacchierata con Vegenova | Is it easy to go vegan in Italy?

    How easy is it to go vegan in Italy? --- Ciao! Siamo Gabriele e Angelique. Benvenuti nel nostro podcast! We are passionate language learners, and we record for you the language learning podcast we’d like to play when we learn new languages Our podcast in mixed English and simple Italian helps beginners and intermediate Italian language learners enjoy engaging content about Italy, its language, and its culture from day 0 of their language learning journey. --- Happy New Year to our dear listeners. As many of you might know, every January, people all over the world participate in the Veganuary challenge to promote and educate everyone on the vegan lifestyle. Because of this, we thought of sharing with you today our conversation with Alice Cosso and Giulia Cimarosti, world travelers and founders of the online vegan community in Genoa, called Vegenova. If they’re not busy traveling across the globe, you’ll see them scouting for places that offer vegan treats here in Genoa, and the rest of the Ligurian coast. Is it impossible to stay vegan when traveling to Italy? Can someone manage to eat a yummy pizza while skipping the mozzarella? Can we still eat authentic Italian food if we stay away from animal products? How will you find Italian restaurants that accommodate this diet? Surprisingly, Italians are not as close-minded as you think when it comes to adopting a vegan diet. Last year, Alice and Giulia launched the first vegan festival also known as VEGenova Vegan Festival, and it turned out to be a success. In this episode, we discuss the many misconceptions people have about maintaining a vegan diet here in Italy, as well as their journey to being one of the most popular online vegan communities in Italy. While it is true that Italians adore their prosciutto crudo, and Parmigiano, they also offer traditional animal-free meals like ribollita, farinata, and zimin, to name a few. Well, how do you think the famous "Mediterranean diet" came to be? --- So, if you’re thinking of organizing a trip to Italy and going plant-based or vegan, you should not miss this episode. And, if you want to learn more about Vegenova’s recommendations, and science-backed information on going vegan, you should surely head to our shownotes. In the meantime, you can support us by leaving us a review in Apple Podcast and on Spotify and joining our Patreon community.

    25 - Christmas Special: Una chiacchierata con Heidi Lovejoy | Would you like to find joy when learning languages?

    Would you like to find joy when learning languages? --- Ciao! Siamo Gabriele e Angelique. Benvenuti nel nostro podcast! We are passionate language learners, and we record for you the language learning podcast we’d like to play when we learn new languages Our podcast in mixed English and simple Italian helps beginners and intermediate Italian language learners enjoy engaging content about Italy, its language, and its culture from day 0 of their language learning journey. --- Today you’re in for a treat. With Christmas fast approaching, we thought of sharing with you an episode that will give you hope and joy. We’d like to share with you our conversation with Heidi Lovejoy, the creator of a language-learning podcast called, Love, Joy, and Languages. Born and raised in Kentucky (U.S.A.), she started her language-learning journey in 2017 when she first moved to Italy together with her husband and her two children. Learning Italian, while being a parent to two young kids in a foreign country – how hard can it be? Heidi shared with us her journey, both as a language learner and as a parent. As you might have guessed, the path she chose was not easy. Rather than chasing after perfection, and getting stuck in her negative self-talk, she learned to let go and trust the process. And this was what she did when her family moved to Germany and had to start their life again from scratch. If you’re seeking some joy in your language learning process, and feel hopeful this Christmas holiday, then this is the episode you should listen to. This will be our last episode for 2022, as we’ll be taking a break and will be spending time with our loved ones in the weeks to come. Tune in next month as we’ll release more episodes about Italy, and more! In the meantime, you can support us by leaving us a review in Apple Podcast and on Spotify and joining our Patreon community.
