Hi, I’m Claudio
Hi, I’m Claudio
I’ve lived in Bologna for 20 years
I speak English, Italian
I am Graphic Designer / Musician
Hello I’m Claudio! I moved to Bologna in 2003 to study sociology, since then I fell in love with this beautiful city so I decided to live here. I am a musician and graphic/web designer. Over the years I played with different bands in many clubs of the city and I worked in the graphic/web field in various communication agencies and publishing houses. Music has always been my first passion: currently I'm attending the Conservatory to get my degree in jazz bass. What I appreciate most about Bologna is its cultural vivacity, in fact, despite being a quite small city, it really offers a lot to its inhabitants and to those who come to visit: music and film festivals, exhibitions and museums, trade fairs, live music venues, libraries and obviously many restaurants and trattorias. As well as the city centre, the neighbourhood I hang out the most is Bolognina, since I live here with my girlfriend and our 4yo daughter.

We had the best time with Claudio during our Bologna tour! Claudio gave us an unforgettable tour where he took us off the beaten path and gave us the best food recommendations. By the end of the tour he felt like an old friend and I felt like I really experienced so much of Bologna's hidden gems and history. We'll never forget our time in Bologna thanks to Claudio and we already can't wait to return. Do not hesitate to book an experience with Claudio!
