It would be a pleasure to be your local host, to show you around making sure you get the most out of your visit. As a traveler myself, I don´t like "out of the can" solutions for touring around....and that is why I offer tours that are different; fun as well as interesting. I have been working as a guide for more than 15 years, and I have now set up my base between Madrid (Spain) and Santorini Island (Greece). I am privileged in that I can enjoy the best of a great cultural city, such as Madrid, and also relax & admire the beauty of a Greek island... I am therefore specialized in “feeling the places as a visitor, with the insight of a local” I invite you to discover and feel the meaning of Mediterranean culture. My Background, Licenses and certificates I am an experienced guide with a very strong academic and professional background and have been in the tourism industry since the 90s. I had a bilingual education, both school and university, providing me with great communication skills as well as an instinct for adapting to different cultures and environments. My passion for travel was born when as a teenager I took part on several exchange programs to the UK and the USA. Since then I have continued to travel throughout the years. I was born and raised in Barcelona and then moved to Madrid. I attended a French primary and secondary school and then I moved again, this time to London. I studied BA International Business and French in London and I spent my Erasmus year in Paris. As I have itchy feet, that wasn´t enough and I moved to Greece where I started working as a guide and became a professional Tour Leader. I have attended workshops, seminars and courses related to business and cultural subjects, obtaining several certificates and diplomas, including recently the certificate from the “Comunidad de Madrid” for guides.
