I'm passionate about my city, its endless variety of natural landscapes and historic wonders, its spectacular white sand beaches and seaside promenade and many beautiful green areas. I will enjoy showing you around my city. I graduated from College as a National and International Tourist Guide. I have also lived for five months at Boston University, USA. practicing my English and travelling around exploring different amazing cities and learning about their history and culture. I worked as a bilingual English-Spanish Secretary at two Import/Export companies in Montevideo. I love knowing about different cultures and I enjoy meeting people from all over the world.

Michelle was such a great tour guide! We loved seeing the highlights in Montevideo and wish we had more time to really enjoy the town. Four hours wasn't anywhere near enough time. The private van and driver was super nice to have and made the experience a lot better. Would recommend Michelle to anybody.
