About
I'm a French-Italian traveler with a love for uncovering hidden gems, whether it’s a vibrant local market, a mountain lodge, a boutique hotel by the beach, or a stay that feels like a well-kept secret. Having lived across continents—from France to Chile, Argentina, Costa Rica, and Hong Kong—I developed an early appreciation for cultural diversity and the feeling of being at home anywhere in the world. After eight years curating wine experiences for clients, I now channel that same care and attention into crafting travel that’s meaningful, sustainable, and thoughtfully tailored to each experience.
Travel style
With a multicultural background, a love of languages, and a passion for regenerative travel, I create trips that feel personal and purposeful. I focus on cultural connection, thoughtful planning, and uncovering hidden gems, like a neighborhood restaurant or a unique adventure off the beaten path, that make travel memorable. Every journey is designed with curiosity, rooted in sustainability and a genuine sense of place.
