Anna was born in Wangaratta, a little town in country Victoria, where the Italian heritage is easy to spot.


What is the most beautiful language in the world? It is Italian of course, at least for Anna Grogan who started learning the language at a very early age.

Anna lives in Melbourne but grew up in Wangaratta, on the border between NSW and Victoria, a small town of 16 thousand inhabitants with a large community of Italian origin.

This is why at school she studied Italian and kept improving the language in high school, when her first trip abroad took her to Padua for a school exchange.
