I am a registered Sardinian tour guide and a food lover. I love the city of Cagliari, which I rediscovered after living for many years in the UK. While living there, I worked for many years in the hospitality industry, and I owned a delicatessen and an ice cream shop. I love talking about food and guiding people around this beautiful city.
