Ciao, I'm Stefano. A true Tuscan and Florentine local. Born and raised here in Tuscany, in a cold and sunny day of December 1982. I grew up with my grandparents in a place called Fucecchio just 30 mins away from Florence. I learned from my farmers grandparents, love for my land and passion for wines. My first grape harvest that I remember it was when I was 3 years old and of course I pressed grapes with my feet. Since than wines and farming are part of my life and . . . I am a Wine and Beer licesend SOMMELIER since in 2017. I believe in "mente santa and corpore sano", it means healthy mind in helthy body. The only way to really appreciate and taste food and wine. I love trail running and gravel bike riding, in my recent past I was competing in short distances, up to ultra marathons. My bike is called Hildebranda and my van is called Parceval. I have 2 litte girls of 12 and 8 years old. My wife is scottish so I speak english everyday for living. Now it has been 15 years or more that I live in florence, in different neighborhoods to experience the city at its best. For my last 12 years I lead tours in Tuscany, Cinque Terre and Chianti Classico. I did vespa tours and Fiat 500 tours, wine and food experiences and bike tours. I am a LICENSED EXPERT HIKING/BIKING GUIDE for hikes and adventures in the hills around Florence, Tuscany and Cinque terre. I love to organise also MULTIDAYS tours biking, hiking or driving in TUSCANY, UMBRIA and CINQUE TERRE. I love old pilgrimage roads, perfect fro gravel bike rides, so cool. I have organised multidays gravel biking trip like Florence to Rome, or Florence to Assisi or Assisi to Rome, amazing bike rides. I love jumping into new adventures and so I am also an ACTOR for tv commercials for toys , wines and anything I think it worth to advertise with my face. I did theater for few years and this helped me a lot to be a tv commercial actor. Last but not least I have a UNIVERSITY DEGREE in tourism Business with a Thesis in Social tourism - Impacts of tourism in different societies. One more thing I am funny :):):) Wine & Beer Sommelier FISAR Hiking Guide AIGAE University degree in Turism Business - UNIFI Special driving License KB for Taxi and NCC Outdoor first aid - AIGAE BLSD - AIGAE I am not a Licensed art city guide and I won't be able to guide you inside musuems or historical churches.
