About

Originally from Jerusalem, Israel. I moved to Florence with my husband several years ago to and by that made a childhood dream come true. The first time I arrived to Florence was at the age of 7 on a family holiday and I immediately fell in love with this marvelous city.

I decided right there and then that I would some day I must live in Florence. 23 years later after having a completely different life we decided to embark on a new adventure. My passion for Florence, its art and history hadn`t subsided and after guiding my friends and family numerous times through the streets of Florence it was time to become a professional guide in Italy and I have been doing it passionately ever since. I am also a licensed tour guide in the Vatican Museums.

Hobbies & Interests
I`m a very open hearted person, I am easily moved by simple things. I am into music, art, history, theatre, cinema, reading. I adore good food and I love to cook dinners for friends. I also have recently developed an obsession skin-care and curly hair products....it's becoming a problem!

Virtual Tour Experience

It's an amazing new platform and it makes me re-think me usual routs and focus as a guide. On line tours and experiences require even more energy and engagement from the guide in order to reach the travelers through the screen.
