Visual artist and tour guide, passionate about history, culture and art in general, I have been living and enjoying this great city that is Milan for 10 years, which never ceases to be discovered, and only with the years some are able to understand everything It can really offer, which is a lot. Born in Santiago de Chile, once I finished my secondary studies I started my adventure to the old continent to soak up art, history and culture, something I continue to do every day. I have been showing this city to travelers of all kinds for years and I would love to continue sharing my knowledge and experiences with new travelers!
