About me
I graduated in Barcelona with a degree in Tourism Information and Marketing and I am a certified tour guide— a combination that has allowed me to turn my passion for heritage, cultures, and people into an authentic way of living and sharing experiences.
I’m someone who loves to make the most of every moment. I’m passionate about helping others, cycling, Nordic walking, and staying connected to nature, among many other things that inspire me every day.
I decided to bring together three of my passions and turn them into my career: teaching Spanish, providing technical translations, and traveling in good company.
Throughout my professional journey, I’ve had the opportunity to meet and collaborate with remarkable people who became great friends, always offering me trust and courage. The values that guide my life and my work include: Faith – Gratitude – Inspiration – Motivation – Courage – Action – Growth – and Building Mutual Confidence.
I have worked as a Spanish teacher in public schools with children and teenagers aged 5 to 16, in international language schools, at the University of Biella (Italy), and as a Spanish trainer for the corporate sector. I also carried out significant research on the historical origins of the Jewish community of Piedmont, where I studied and became familiar with the route followed by Sephardic Jews on their way to this Italian region.
My personal and professional path remains deeply connected to what drives me: sharing knowledge, creating bridges through language, and honoring the profound Jewish roots of Sepharad.
Over time, I have developed personalized routes and cultural connections that help rediscover and understand the Sephardic legacy—creating experiences that bring to life the memory, roots, and identity that still link Sepharad to the world.
