Hi there! My name is Francesca I’m passionate about arts, languages, and genuine connections. At the moment, I’m majoring in economics and communication for tourism in Lugano, Switzerland.

Originally from Sanremo, I grew up on the Ligurian coast, where I lived for 18 years before moving to Turin to start college. I know Liguria quite well—I loved exploring new places there, and I also lived in quite a number of cities while growing up. I love sharing its culture and hidden gems with people who are not yet familiar with this beautiful region.

Because I lived in Turin for almost four years during college, I also feel confident in my knowledge of its best local trattorias, must-visit corners and neighborhoods, and how to get the best views of the city’s skyline.

Additionally, I’m half-Brazilian on my mom’s side, so I can also provide explanations in Portuguese if needed!

I'm an expert when it comes to local restaurants (I'm a big foodie), cafeterias, the best beaches, hidden gems, and transportation tips both in Liguria and Torino. Specifically, I can help you planning your trip going anywhere from Sanremo, to Alassio, Finale Ligure, Genova, and Cinque Terre.
