Tour guide in Genoa Marina P.

As someone who moved to Genoa from the USA in the 80s, it was quite a bit of a culture shock! It took me a while to get into the "Italian" style of schooling, "not" staying in line, an obsession with 3 course meals and very specific fashion trends! It wasn't hard to fall in love with Genoa, a city that has evolved and changed a lot since then. My name is Marina and I’m Italian even though I wasn’t born here and moved around quite a bit in my younger years! After attending High School in Genoa, I returned when I was 28 and decided to set up camp in the historical center of this lovely city I now call home. I’ve worked as a translator and intrepreter my whole lfe, with a few stints of teaching and a passion for mindfulness. I am now also a fully licensed Italian Tour Leader and I’ve found I thoroughly enjoy sharing all that I love about Genoa and its people (as well as its flaws!). If you’re looking for an insider’s view on the city, local perspectives, and insights on lifestyle differences that Americans usually find amusing or admirable, then join me!
