Hey there, fellow adventurers! I'm a geographer turned globetrotter, having explored 28 countries and counting. By day, I manage events; by weekend I'm all about embracing the great outdoors – from hiking trails to pedaling through new landscapes. My extensive experience with NGOs and volunteering has allowed me to forge connections with diverse cultures, spurring me on to become an official tour guide. I'm not only fluent in Italian, but I also have a passion for crafting homemade pasta. Oh, and did I mention I've got a cozy holiday home in a charming village near Zagreb? Let's join forces and embark on a Zagreb exploration together!
