My Story
I grew up in an environment that was constantly evolving: travel.
From travel agencies to tour operators, and later within the hospitality world, travel has always been part of my everyday life. Through these diverse experiences—including time spent working abroad—I’ve developed a broad set of skills and perspectives that allow me to approach every journey with both structure and enthusiasm.
Today, as a travel advisor, I bring together this professional background with a highly personal approach to travel planning. I work closely with my clients to design thoughtful, well-balanced journeys that feel authentic, seamless, and truly tailored to who they are.
I believe the most meaningful trips are built on listening, trust, and attention to detail—not on standard itineraries. My role is to guide you from the first idea to the moment you return home, ensuring every experience feels considered, effortless, and memorable.
Travel Style
Nature and animals inspire me deeply, and food and local culture are essential parts of how I experience a place. I love traveling in a way that feels connected and genuine—tasting local cuisine, understanding traditions, and spending time in environments that feel alive and authentic.
I value comfort and thoughtful design, and I’m naturally drawn to boutique hotels with character rather than impersonal luxury. For me, the best trips combine nature, culture, and ease, creating experiences that feel warm, human, and memorable.

A Private Day at Sea Along the Costa Smeralda

Costa di Baunei: Sardinia’s Wildest Coastline

Hammam Wine Therapy: Sardinia’s Most Unexpected Ritual
There are experiences in Sardinia that go far beyond the expected—and this is one of them.

La Maddalena by Private Sail: Access Sardinia The Way Insiders Do
Sardinia reveals its most extraordinary side when you approach it by sea. A private, wind-powered sail through La Maddalena gives you access to protected coves and that “no one else around” feeling—without giving up comfort, service, or discretion. It’s the kind of luxury insiders choose: flexible, quiet, and completely tailored to the group. And the perfect contrast is finishing the day in La Maddalena town—promenade, gelato, harbor light—when you decide not to rush back.

Olbia Beyond the Airport: A Local’s Guide to Shopping
Olbia is often seen as a gateway—the airport, the port, the road to Costa Smeralda. But beyond its role as an arrival point, the town has its own rhythm and understated charm. I love Olbia for its mix of Sardinian authenticity and contemporary Italian style. If you know where to look, it offers thoughtful boutiques, artisan finds, and relaxed shopping without the excess of luxury resort destinations.
