Hola! My name is Debora and I am very excited to show you around in beautiful Asturias! I am from the Netherlands, but married to a Spanish guy. From the moment that he introduced me to his home region Asturias a few years ago I fell in love with the landscape, friendly people and great food, and I am looking forward to share it with you! Since I was a young girl I have been passionate about nature and travelling. Next to my studies in Forestry and Nature Conservation and International Land and Water Management, I have therefore been volunteering as a guide for several Dutch and international organizations, where I primarily focused on showing children and teenagers the beauty of nature. I have visited most European countries as well as spent time in Indonesia, Zambia, Mexico and the USA. These trips allowed me to get to know other cultures and get acquainted with amazing local habits and customs. The inviting and friendly attitude of most of the people that I met in these countries, encourage me to do the same for people wanting to get to know Asturias! I live in Oviedo in the north of Spain since the beginning of 2018. Right from the start, I have explored not only this city but also nearby cities such as Gijon and Aviles, as well as the surrounding countryside. If you are looking for a guide that is passionate about the Asturian culture and its landscape, do not hesitate to contact me! PhD, MSc and BSc in Environmental Sciences // Official National Guide of the Dutch National Guides' Association // Cambridge C2 Proficiency Certificate (Highest qualification level of English) // Local Entrepreneur Certificate by the Chamber of Commerce of Oviedo, Asturias // Over ten years of experience leading excursions for youth groups (age 8-16) in the Netherlands.

Have fun in Asturias' Dinosaur Museum and enjoy a local lunch in a fishermen village with scenic views
Overview of your Gijon tour
Are your curious to learn more about the presence of dinosaurs in Asturias? Do you literally want to step into their footprints? Would you like to enjoy fresh seafood looking out over the Cantabrian Sea? Then join my tour 'Walking with Dinosaurs': is the perfect combo experience for families, adults and kids! The coast between Gijon and Ribadesella in Asturias is also called 'Dinosaur Coast'. This is because of the abundant presence of original dinosaur footprints and fossil bones from dinosaurs and other Jurassic reptiles. In this trip we'll go back to the past in the Jurassic Museum of Asturias, where you'll learn all about the presence of dinosaurs in Asturias among Real-life dinosaurs that 'live' in the garden around the museum! Then, we'll take a short walk along the coast to search for dinosaur footprints (they are among the largest in the world!): lot of fun activity, I guarantee! The tour ends tasting delicious fresh seafood dish in a typical Asturias fishermen village enjoying outstanding views.
