Hi, I’m Michela
Hi, I’m Michela
I’ve lived in Milan for 53 years
I speak English, French, Italian and some Spanish, German
I am a Tour leader/travel advisor
I'm Michela, a local host in Milan with a deep love for the city’s culture, creativity, and contrasts. I have a special connection to Brera - where I studied and where art, history, and inspiration fill every corner. I also adore Ortica for its vibrant street art and authentic Milanese charm, and Piazza Duomo at dawn, when the city is still asleep. I enjoy walking to the city center, visiting museums, libraries, and attending events like Design Week. I know areas like Brera, Isola, Navigli, and Ortica like the back of my hand. I’m passionate about Milan’s history and traditions, and I love sharing the city’s stories - whether through its markets, hidden gems, or world-class galleries.
