YOU CAN SKIP THE INTRO BY JUMPING TO 2:05 (REMEMBER TO ACTIVATE SUBTITLES!)

Hi everybody, my name's Stefano and this is my Language Snapshot 2017, my first-ever video for YouTube, and despite some cuts it's still quite... long! Skip the introduction (2:05) if you want to listen directly to the other languages.

Languages spoken:
00:25 English
02:20 German
04:11 Portuguese
05:28 French
07:30 Finnish
09:19 Spanish
10:18 Japanese
12:24 Romanian
14:17 Italian
14:45 (Mandarin and Icelandic, only one sentence each)

Further notes:
- this video was recorded in Apr. 2017 on two different days and at different times of day, so I apologize for the sudden changes in lighting (whoever has spent some time in Brussels knows just how it is like here :D).
- This is a long overdue video and I'd like to thank all my friends (not only polyglots!) for their encouragement to finally reach out and join in...
- While I am aware of some mistakes that I made in this video, I do appreciate corrections because these can make me a better speaker, thank you in advance for your help.
- A couple of things in these video are already "old", in that the most recent Polyglot Gathering was in Bratislava at the beginning of June this year, I was there as well and it was a lot of fun! Also, in the meantime I've been in Romania for the third time and I loved it once again, had many opportunities to practice the language and (hopefully) improved my conversational skills (still need to work A LOT on my vocabulary though).
- I promise that my next videos will be much, much shorter... :)
