Lives in Buenos Aires, DF, Argentina
Hola! Ciao! Hi! Oi! I'm Giselle I am from Buenos Aires by birth and by choice but my life has been marked by travel since before the beginning. In fact, if my whole family had not come from Italy, I would not exist. My super powers activate when someone asks me what to eat, what to do or where to go. I am a foodie passionate about coffee, book shops, cultural plans and architecture, Argentina, Italy, Spain and Mexico are home for me but I have also many registers from my trips to Europe and South America. Curiosity and creativity are present in my daily life. When I was a child I wanted to be a flight attendant and writer. I never stopped flying or writing. If you like titles, I could define myself as: facilitator of joyful experiences and creator of stories. My CV says, I formally studied tourism, public relations, creative coaching, English, Italian, Portuguese and a little bit of French. I have a corporate past, working for an airline for 18 years until burnout and being honest with my desires made me create a profession of my passion. From those corporate years I took away planning, the importance of customer experience, many trips and great friends of many nationalities. I have always organized my own trips and for some years now, those of many people who trust me their traveler´s dreams. I deeply believe that traveling transforms. It takes us out of our comfort zone and takes us non-stop to the learning zone. The person who leaves is never the same that returns home. It doesn't matter if we travel 10,000 km or decide to see the city with the eyes of a visitor. Is the travel mindset what matters. My mission now is to help you translate your desires into unique experiences. Without stress, without investing a 1000 hours in planning and doing it in a creative and enjoyable way. Show you the best spots in my city, my country and every place I have collected in my memory during 20 years of travel.
