About

Lorenzo Berardi

Hailing from Bologna, Italy, I started reporting, editing features and hosting information programmes for a local radio during my university studies.

In 2005 I moved to Norway where I co-hosted an English spoken programme on a college radio and covered the Norwegian parliamentary elections for the Italian radio Popolare Network.
Back to Italy, I worked in the busy newsrooms of a number of magazines dealing with economics, politics, healthcare, and tourism.

In 2008 I continued my journalism studies in the Netherlands where I reported for a local radio and worked on some reportages from Sweden.
Two years later, I moved to the UK becoming the correspondent for the Italian newspaper Lettera43 covering the London Riots and the Olympics.

From late 2014 onwards, I have been living in Poland, working as a freelance. Among the publications and media outlets I have been reporting for there are Al Jazeera, V4 Revue, New Eastern Europe, Visegrad Insight, openDemocracy, pagina99, and Lettera43.

I am a TESOL-certified English teacher, an Italian to English translator and proofreader as well as the co-editor of the literary magazine Write the City.
