Every journey begins with people. I’m Andreea, a Travel Designer and licensed Tour Leader. I create tailor-made itineraries and accompany travellers and groups in Puglia, across Italy and around the world.
A DIFFERENT PACE. THE SAME SENSE OF WONDER.
Let’s start with what you enjoy, the time you have and how you want to feel on your trip. That’s what I want to understand before planning an itinerary or accompanying you.
I was born in Bucharest in 1995 and grew up in Turin. I’ve lived in Düsseldorf, Prague and Dakar; today Puglia is my base. I studied International Relations and volunteered through the Italian civil service programme in Senegal.
I’ve accompanied over thirty groups and work in travel design. I’ve been a licensed Tour Leader since 2025. I love trekking, surfing and local food: I bring a listening ear, care for details and respect for the places that welcome us.
An itinerary designed for you, someone by your side. You can request either service separately.
I accompany travellers and groups in Puglia, across Italy and abroad, looking after participants and coordinating the practical details of the agreed programme.
I help you create a route that fits your interests, time and budget, with a dedicated travel planning consultation.
Travel design is a consultancy service: bookings and purchases are made directly by the traveller or through a travel agency or tour operator.
Puglia is my base. My international travel experience helps me look further afield, with the same interest in people and everyday life.
Not everything in a guidebook has to become part of your trip.
Over the years, designing itineraries and accompanying groups, I’ve learnt to value what happens between one stop and the next. A conversation that lasts a little longer, a market worth stopping at, an afternoon left free.
I like less-travelled paths, but also famous places, when there’s time to really take them in. And I want to understand what you’re looking for: rest, walking, meeting people, or finally having a few days without a packed schedule.
That’s where I start when planning an itinerary or accompanying you along the way. With care for how you feel and respect for the places that welcome us.

Days I have lived, routes and places to pause. Inspiration to adapt to your own pace.
A trail above the sea, time to stop and look, and lunch at La Veranda. A day in Mattinata with room to breathe.
Some days need only a few things. At Monte Saraceno I followed the nature and archaeology trail, with the sea alongside the walk, among vegetation and stone. These photographs are from that day.
If you would like to discover Gargano on foot, this could be a starting point. Leave time to pause, notice a small detail and see the coast from another perspective.
After the walk I headed down to La Veranda for lunch with a sea view. The restaurant is open all year, with both indoor and outdoor seating. If you would rather stay outdoors, pack a picnic and stop at the town beach: another way to enjoy the rest of the day at your own pace.
I can help you choose routes and stops that suit your interests and the time you have.
Tell me your idea →Yes. You can request personalised itinerary consultancy or a Tour Leader for your group. We’ll define the service together based on your dates, destinations and needs.
I offer tour leading and travel design consultancy. I do not sell trips, travel packages or individual travel services. Bookings and payments for travel services are handled by the traveller or by a travel agency or tour operator.
Italian, English, Spanish, Romanian and French. I also have some knowledge of German. The working language and any specific requirements are agreed before the trip.
My service is tour leading: assisting travellers and coordinating the programme. Specialist visits to monuments and sites should be arranged with licensed tourist guides.
Each request is assessed individually, taking into account the duration, itinerary, group size, language and planned activities.
