Hi, I’m Francesca

I’ve lived in Bologna for 18 years

I am Student

VIDEO CALL Francesca

I'm originally from Bologna but I've been studying in Singapore for almost 3 years. Additionally, I've lived, studied or worked in the UK, Morocco and Mexico, so I'm open-minded and used to interacting with people from different backgrounds. I'm passionate about learning languages and connecting with people from other cultures, which is what brought me to move to Singapore for my bachelor degree. However, I often come back to Bologna for holidays and through the years I've had many foreign friends from my university come visit me, so I've become very passionate about giving them tours of the city and its hidden gems! As a CityUnscripted Local, I would be able to share my favorite niche cafés and street food places with my guests, show the vibrant graffitis and street art, talk about the history of the city and its modern identity, as well as providing a fun cultural and language exchange.

My reviews

    She planned a wonderful itinerary that included our preferred destinations and then she augmented it with additional local flavor. She also gave us recommendations for additional sight seeing.

    Francesca was warm and friendly. Very knowledgeable about the town and it’s history. Took us to fabulous places to eat. We would recommend this tour as it gave a good insight to the city as a first time visitor.
