Hello my friends, or "Aupa maitia" in Basque! Here in Bilbao, we usually say that: "Locals are born where they want", which means that you don't have to be born here to feel like you belong here. That’s my case! I am Susana, I was born in Athens, Greece, and I was living in Seville when, in April 2018 came to visit the Guggenheim Museum. That was it!!! Do you believe in "love at first sight?" I fell in love with the Museum, the city,, but mostly with its people, the proud Basques and their way of life, which is unique in the world, like their language, the enigmatic euskera, their football team - Athletic - and more (that I challenge you to discover with me). So, I moved to live in Bilbao and, since 2022, I became an Official Tour Guide, because you know, we only live once! I have studied “Spanish language, history and culture” in the Greek University of EAP, so what better than to combine my knowledge, my passion for the place and my travelling experience as a lonely traveller. When ravelling on your own, you get to discover much more than the buildings, the museums, or even the tastes; you get to experience the everyday life and meet the locals. That is the challenge of my job, and I think of every Tour Guide; to create unforgettable experiences and a lot of fun about places that you just probably visit once. And for that, I'm more than willing to adjust any tour according to your needs, your desire of the moment and go the extra mile for whatever might (and always, actually) comes up. There’s one thing that I need to make clear about myself: I don’t understand differences between men and women; I’m completely colour-blind when it comes to human skin colour; I strongly believe that all sexual orientations are sacred and everybody should be free to do with hers / his body whatever she/he wants; I respect all religions and I think that all people are equal under the tender sight of sun, and especially for that, money makes absolutely no matter. I want you to know all these about me, before you finally book me for a tour. But whatever you do, please do come and visit us with an open mind and an open heart, because we’re very proud of our Land Euskal Herria. We are waiting for you!
