The Italian Escape: A bilingual English-Italian language podcast

“It’s a city that does not reveal to you everything it can offer at first glance”

In this episode, we talk about our home city, or for Angelique’s case, her second home: Genoa, the capital of Liguria. Here are a few things one must keep in mind when visiting Genoa:

· The region is often known for its “closed” attitude towards tourists

· Genoa does not only consist of the port: while it has the sea, it also has the mountains

Listen and learn more about the local “celebrities”, interesting facts about Genoa, and our tips on how you can best enjoy Genoa the next time you swing by!

We're now in the 21st century, yet:  

We're Angelique and Gabriele, a Filipino-Italian couple who realized early on (during our first encounter) that communication is a key to a successful relationship. To make the relationship work, we had to learn each other's languages, and so, our communal language (mis)adventure began.  In this episode, we introduced more about ourselves, recalled our key experiences when learning each other's language, shared the reason why we created this podcast.
