I graduated in natural sciences and worked for 15 years as a guide in the nature parks of my province.
Since 2013, I have specialised in food and wine tours and I accompany foreign tourists to discover my region through its products.
I have always been passionate about cooking since I was a little girl helping my grandmother to prepare her wonderful cakes. As I grew up, I began to travel and discover the dishes of different countries, buying cookbooks and exchanging recipes with the locals. One of the most rewarding things is inviting people over for dinner and trying out new dishes.
Almost by accident and with great satisfaction, I was able to turn this passion into a job. My family and my home are always open to people from different countries and we love to show them our food culture while learning about theirs.
Since 2007 I have been hosting American students studying in Parma (so far I have had 56!), I have always taught them how to cook Italian dishes to their great satisfaction.
Travelling and discovering cities through their traditions and food is the best way to live like a local.
Come with me on an unforgettable experience to get to know and “taste” Parma (and Italy) with all your senses.
