I'm Silvana. I'm a touristic guide very passionate about my land. I'm very curious of local history. I love spending time with tourists and talking with them about "Sorrento its myths and Sirens", its landscapes and places such as hotels which were inspiration for artists, singers, poets and composers. I've traveled the world for pleasure and work, but I defenitely think there's no place as charming and magic as this. During my job in the morning I welcome foreign delegations visiting the Town Hall of Sorrento as our sister cities, in the afternoon and in my free time I dedicate my time to showcase my land to tourists. I am a connoisseur of litterature and art as well as food and wine products and you can see it from my exuberant roundness. I got a 2 years experience as a guide and I couldn't live without doing it. I graduated in International Relations at the Univerisity of Naples. I got in 2014 the license as touristic guide at Campania Region in Italian, English, French and Spanish. I'm affiliated at the Torquato Tasso Institute, a University based in Sorrento who has dedicated to our epic poet Torquato Tasso. In my current job in the morning I'm the Head of International Relations at the Town Hall of Sorrento. I travel a lot visiting our sister cities, but in my spare time I feel the need to let tourists fall in love with my Land which is not only limoncello, pizza and mandolino, but famous for its myths, legends, litterature, art and inlaid wood work. I got a small auto. I can take up to three passengers. If you are more I can arrange for a transfer by car up to 7 passengers.
