What places and activities do you specialize in?
" Italy is a magnificent country, full of magical and unique places: the magnificent coastal paths of the Amalfi Coast, the colorful villages overlooking the 5 Terre, the grandiose mountains of the Dolomites, the unique architecture of the Apulian cities declared a World Heritage Site from UNESCO, the volcanoes of Sicily, without forgetting to savor the "Dolce Vita" with a Chianti wine in Tuscany or a good pizza in Naples."
How did you get involved in travel?
"As a child I traveled a lot and when I finished my studies, after several work experiences in marketing I decided to turn my passion for travel into a job.
My goal: to make you discover the beauty hidden in my country!"
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"I have spent twenty years traveling and living in several countries, but among the unforgettable experiences there is certainly a destination that is right close to home.
Walking on the edge of the crater of the highest active volcano in Europe, listening to it breathe, feeling the power of nature is certainly a unique experience. I invite you to come and discover Mount Etna."
