I'm Chiara, I come from a small town close to Venice- Italy. I moved in Barcelona in 2011 'cause I fall in love with this beautiful city , I lived in a lot of places around the world but I think that Barcelona is the best one. I worked as accompanying guide in Greece and Maldives and then I worked in hotels and restaurant for many years and know I would like to go back to the origins : the world of the turistic guide. I really love to meet people of different countries and work with them. I'm fascinated booth with the history and the good vibes of Barcelona and I would like to help turists to get involved with them.
