Isabella

5.0(2)Ciao! I'm Isabella From Puglia. I grew up in a small town near Ostuni and have spent my whole life exploring every corner of Puglia — from the whitewashed streets of Locorotondo to secret coves along the Salento coast. I know where to find the best orecchiette, the most scenic sunset aperitivos, and beach clubs where locals actually go! I love helping tourists experience Puglia’s rhythm — slow, authentic, and full of warmth.

Hi - I'm Marianna! I love nature and animals. I'm athletic, but I don't have a favourite sport because I like to change things up and try new activities. The important thing is to be active. I love discovering secret and unknown places, and I'd like to be a citizen of the world to share experiences with friends old and new! As a nature enthusiast, I studied forestry and environmental sciences, and this is what attracts me most about the world: seeking out pristine, wild places and, of course, animals! I love exploring foreign cultures and experiencing them like a local, sharing unique and unforgettable moments! Travel is part of my life; every place I visit is a discovery within me. My favourite destinations: • Asia (Thailand, Japan, Indonesia, Vietnam) • Africa (South Africa, Zimbawe, Botswana, Morocco, Egypt, Horseback trekking) • USA (Metropolises, itinerant & coast-to-coast trips, Park Tours and Monument Valley) • Europe (Italy, Spain, France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands, Greece) I can help you find exclusive places and unforgettable experiences!

5.0(4)I've travelled 127 countries in the world since I left home at the age of 17. I am Puglian, Mediterranean, Italian and citizen of this Planet Earth. Since 2021 I have been based again in my home region of Puglia. My international travels, work abroad, and infectious passion for our land and people, have placed me in a unique position to share the deep roots and beauty of a region still in its infancy with respect to welcoming foreign travellers.

5.0(4)Ex-professional basketball player, born in Northern Italy but living in Apulia for the love of my wife and this land. We renovated a trullo in Ostuni and started our Airbnb experience, welcoming amazing guests from all over the world. The thing we enjoy most is making our guests feel like they are in their “second home” in Apulia, not in a standard rental villa.
