Om denne podcast
This is a somewhat special space, dedicated to those who are learning Italian, but doing it in their own way, following their own rhythm and style.
If you are an introverted, reflective person, and you always find an opportunity to learn something new, then you are in the right place.
I am Cristina and this is Italian in my own way (Italiano a Modo mio)!
