About operator:

I am one of the best English speaking nature guide in the East of Sicily, I worked as Sicily's location scout/translator for BBC nature documentaries . I spend more time in nature than any other place. I especially love to share the secret river pools and waterfalls, coastline of my Sicilian childhood. I also manage my beautiful riverside off-grid farm where I grow all the vegetables needed for my young family's survival. I am an avid researcher of old Sicilian traditions. Fun, knowledge and stunning locations are my main ingredients for an unforgettable experience.
