I have been a licensed tour guide in Florence since 2008 and I love the city's art and history. But more importantly, I was born and raised in Florence; many of my ancestors from the mid 16th century onward are registered in the Baptistery, which is also where my daughter was baptized. Walking along the streets of Florence is like reliving my family's past. Sharing Florence's past—and sharing my passion for Florence today—is what I love to offer my clients as we explore the city together, discovering its many beautiful facets and hidden secrets. A love of travel and humanities led me to live abroad, learning the languages and cultures of other countries, allowing me to give tours in English, French, Spanish, and Italian. I love hiking and climbing in the mountains and am also a passionate supporter of Florence's local football team, Florentina.
