I joined the Yumping team, as Content Manager of the Italy section, in September 2023.
After years working as a freelance editor and screenwriter, I found a way to continue my career in the world of writing thanks to this venture.
Currently I am in charge of both the review of past content, to give it a new identity, and the creation of new content for the company, managing the entire Italy section at an editorial level.
Studies
Graduate in Modern Literature at the
UNITO Faculty of Turin, I specialized in creative writing (advertising, editorial and film), thanks to the Master in Storytelling Arts, from the
IULM Institute of Milan.
Vocational training
I have worked as a freelance creative writing teacher and as a judge for several competitions for screenwriters, including the competition organized by the Società Umanitaria for young screenwriters.
I was responsible for managing the editorial content of the art gallery Esos Art, working as the company's Social Media Manager.
Finally, I worked for three years for Fandango S.P.A., a major Italian film production company, as a screenwriter, working on award-winning projects distributed by Sky Italia.
Adventure sports experience
In my free time I love to travel and do a lot of sports. I take advantage of the weekends to get away from the city and relax during some horseback riding through the splendid Roman countryside. Or, if possible, I escape for a few days to Tuscany, where I windsurf and have fun trying new water sports.
Questions to Carolina Grassi on Yumping.it
What are the three sports activities that you should do at least once in your life?
Any choice is strictly related to the personal tastes of each person: I, for example, am a lover of the sea, so I would recommend experiencing the magic that diving offers among the crystalline Italian waters. For those who prefer dry land, I would suggest a camping experience, during which you can relax in the middle of nature and climb some of the most beautiful rock walls that exist in northern Italy. Finally, an experience that I have already put on my list of things to do, for the bravest, a parachute jump is ideal: the most adrenaline-filled experience of all, you have to try it at least once in your life!
What sport or activity would you like to be an instructor for?
Without a doubt about some water sport: I would be undecided between surfing and windsurfing. The marine environment is the one in which I feel most comfortable and of which I never get tired.
What activities do you recommend doing in your hometown?
Rome is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful cities in the world and, probably, seeing it from above can offer an even greater magical experience: I would recommend a hot air balloon ride or a panoramic flight over the Eternal City, to discover its beauty from a new perspective.
