My name is Dorothee and I will be your host here in beautiful Nice, France. I can say that I am the type of person who is active, and curious, who enjoys new projects. Born in Paris, I studied in Nice and I am an official trilingual tour guide since 2005. I am also a photographer, reporter, videomaker and casting director. I find everything creative very interesting, the same is the case with tourist guiding, it is something that is dynamic, always interesting and never the same. I like to connect with people and create cultural interactivity, share my experiences about the diversity of our culture, history and people. I created a non-profit organization to highlight and protect our heritage, I like to combine tourism and art and listen to what others have to say. As a tourist guide, besides Nice, I also worked in Paris, Spain, Italy, and Portugal I ve been a tourist guide teacher as well and I wrote 10 travel' guides about Peru and Argentina for the web : great advices, restaurants, history and itineraries, not to miss . . . illustrated with pictures. Very useful. I consider myself as open-minded, friendly and kind person and I am looking forward to meeting you in my Nice so we can have a chat and fun together.

A nice program as the private visit of the Grand Synagogue (rarely opened), the Place Massena, the Flower Market, the narrow streets with the the old Jewish street, the areas of the medieval Jewish ghetto, the old Synagogue, the famous Promenade des Anglais and the Jewish cemetery at the Castle Hill. The walls tell stories and I would be happy to share them with you !
