How long have you been an Italy Expert and what do you specialise in?
I’ve been with Citalia for 18 years, I’m part of the furniture. I absolutely love Sicily and Florence, so I really enjoy planning holidays around there. Also multi-centre holidays in general.
"No holiday is the same, everything is unique to the customer and I enjoy being part of that journey."
1. What was your most memorable holiday meal?
The food at Hotel Santa Caterina. The hotel grows its own herbs and vegetables, so everything is just so fresh.2. What is the best thing about being in Italy?
The food, people, weather, and history. Exploring the historic areas is fantastic and getting to know the locals is an absolute must. Italians are always so open to sharing their experiences and top tips, so you get to experience the lesser-known areas.
3. Where would you love to go next, and why?
Puglia, I’ve been once with work many years ago and would love the chance to explore more here. Also Sorrento, my last trip was 17 years ago and it would be great to see how the area has changed over the years.
4. Do you prefer visiting cities, coast or countryside, and why?
This is such a difficult one to answer for Italy because all of them are so great. If I had to choose, it would be the coast, simply because it’s the easiest for exploring more of Italy. You can have the best of both worlds really. Relaxing on the coast then onto a city for exploring on foot. I personally prefer holidays where I have the time to relax and enjoy some downtime, while also getting out to explore the history and culture, and the coast is ideal for both.
