My name is Martina, I am licensed tourist guide for Siena and its province in Spanish and English.
I was born and I have been always lived and studied in my birth place. Since I was at Hide School I have always loved studying English language and History of Art.
During my University study in anglo-american and ispano- american Literature and Language I could deepen the English language and I could studied the Spanish language, thank also to a period of studies that I spent in England and later in Spain with an Erasmus scholaship.
After graduation and working experiences as receptionist in different hotels of the province of Siena, the call to the history of art made itself felt.
Thank to a course I obtained the licence to become guide in Siena and its province. I had the an oportunity to know, in addition to the works of art that we find in the Sienese territory, all the traditions and typical products of our land and comunicate to all the tourists who visit this wonderful places: Siena with the Duomo and Piazza del Campo, place of the most important race in the city, the Palio which takes place every year on July 2 and August 16 between 10 of the 17 contradas to win the banner dedicated to the Virgin Mary, protector of the city, and the territory that goes from San Gimignano to the Val d ‘Orcia, from the abbey of San Galgano to Montepulciano,
Chiusi up to the Chianti Hills.
