Hello everyone! I am Valeria, Neapolitan, born and raised in the Spanish neighborhood and founder of Around with A Local. In love with Naples and a passionate student of its history, I love sharing who I am and what I know with travelers from all over the world. Graduated from the Oriental of Naples in Languages ​​and Cultures, then I moved to Turin to specialize with a master's degree in International Communication for Tourism. A tireless traveler, I have dedicated my educational career to language learning and tourism. I love visiting places far from my native culture: That's why with Around with a Local we try to create a true cultural and human exchange between travelers. Our goal is to shift attention from classic mass tourism to a more intimate and conscious tourism, aimed at creating an exchange between knowledge and a deep understanding of the places visited. The dialogues between traveler and guide are the key to an experience that looks at the entire territory. The Around with a Local team is two friends, me and Joanita, both born and raised in those neighborhoods that we want to show you!

È stata un’esperienza veramente significativa, una parte di Napoli difficile da capire ma Valeria ci ha letteralmente guidato attraverso il cambiamento nei luoghi d rinascita e riscatto del Rione Sanità. Bellissima esperienza e guida bravissima! Federica

La passeggiata con Valeria è stata una delle esperienze più belle della nostra visita a Napoli: ci ha permesso di vedere la città con occhi nuovi e di apprezzare luoghi che avevamo avuto sotto il naso per giorni ma di cui non conoscevamo la storia “informale”. Valeria racconta con la passione e la competenza di chi è cresciuta in questi posti ma senza dare per scontato la bellezza che si trova davanti. Super consigliato!
