Ciao, my name is Alessandra and I am a Licensed Tour Guide.I had got a first degree in Cultural heritage with a dissertation on one of my favorite paintings ever: “seven works of mercy” of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, located in Neaples in the Pio Monte della Misericordia church.Also I received my second degree in archeology and art history creating an iconographic catalog on the figure of St.Mary of Egypt in the Neapolitan seventeenth century.A very exciting experience that led me to know even lesser artists and little know places of my city.

My greatest passion is art history; since I was a child I went around for the roads of my city to discover the beauties of which I remained deeply fascinated.What I want is transmit this passion of mine.I am a Neapolitan “scugnizza”: term referred to lively and enterprising children, I love my Neaples, my land and I want to tell its millennial history; from the Greek foundation to the Roman colonies, from great kings until today.A history made of struggles, of intrigue and a lot of sacred and profane legends.I want to tell a land made of strong and bright colors, the blue of our sea and the streets made of colorful buildings; of smells and aromas which are around walking on the streets; of old stories that populate modern places, of clear shapes like the facades of the churches, the columns of Pompeian houses and the Mount Vesuvius: the father of us Neapolitans.If you need a voice like these do not hesitate to contact me.
