Hi guys, I'm Andrea, photojournalist and documentary filmmaker from Italy, based in Beijing.

After graduating from a Master in Management Engineering and Finance in Milan, I started doing some office jobs but I soon realized that I wanted a change, that's how I ended up in China. I attended a Master in Multimedia Journalism in Beijing and I'm now freelancing from this side of the world.

I've been to many countries so far and I hope the trend will continue. I'm a very curious person who loves traveling, meeting new people, learning local habits and local history.

音乐、电影和书籍

The list is way too long.

Movies: I like indie cinema. I recently fell in love with Chinese and Hong Kong movies.
Music: anything from techno to post punk to classical music that has the ability to emotion.
Book: non fiction. I like reading things that inform me about real issues and real places . Anything that can stimulate my mind and teach me something new about a place in a certain period of time.
