Dear traveler,

I could talk about my city and my country for hours but when talking about me… I don’t really know what to say nut I’ll try to introduce myself.

I was born and lived in Sibiu all my life but I discovered my great passion for tourism somewhere else…. in USA :).

It all happened in 2005 when, as a student, I worked for several months at Hollywood Universal Studios. I used to work as a chef assistant in a restaurant (Hollywood Grill) and, in my free time, I used to guide tourists within the theme park. It was an amazing experience and that’s how I discovered what I wanted to do. I had the chance to interact with so many people from all over the world. I loved the American culture and civilization so much that my graduation paper was The History of American Movie Studios. Actually, my passion for the Western world goes back into my Communist childhood, but this is another topic :).

Back in my hometown, I started to work as a tour guide in 2007 when Sibiu became European Capital of Culture. My first tourists were an official cultural delegation from Luxembourg. That’s how I realized that my hobby for history and guiding became a real passion and my passion, a profession!

In all these years I have organized hundreds of walking tours, day trips and long tours in Transylvania and various other areas of Romania. I had the chance to work with travelers from all over the world, discover amazing places and live unforgettable moments. I feel so lucky and grateful in the same time …

As a tour guide I am fascinated by history and I have a great passion for the 20th century as I consider it essential and directly responsible for what we are today. I love politics and enjoy any kind of debates. I am interested in economy, sociology, psychology, art, political history, in general. I am serious when I have to, but I also enjoy humor and relaxing conversations. I’m not a foodie person but I love coffee and wine especially in a good company. This year I want to involve more locally, supporting our community as I consider tourism should be sustainable and responsible.

Several years ago, I wanted to make a step forward and develop the business as our region had become quite popular among tourists. Thus, my husband, a mechanic engineer, decided to join me in this business. Now, it’s two of us. We love a lot interacting with people, sharing our knowledge, local crafts, traditions and, of course, delicious gastronomy. It is a pleasure to join our guests and their satisfaction is our greatest reward!

During the last 18 years, I have worked not only as a tour guide but also as a tourism manager and consultant for the Sibiu Town Hall, Sibiu Tourism Board and a 4* hotel. I participated in 6 European Tourism Fairs (promoting Sibiu), more than 15 Romanian Tourism Fairs and I was involved in several European Tourism Projects like #Christa and #LookUp. I was privileged to work with various TV productions, media, bloggers and vloggers, official delegations. All these years have bought me so many experiences to remember!

I am looking forward to meeting you in person and enjoy a great “Transylvanian” experience together!
