Hi! I'm Alessandro, born and raised at the foot of Etna, with lava in my veins and a degree in Tourism Sciences in hand, enriched by an internship at the Linguaglossa Pro Loco. My passion is telling stories and curiosities about the land I love - every stone, path, and tradition of this volcanic territory I call home.
Through my articles and contributions on this site, I share my love for Etna and Linguaglossa as only someone born here can - with anecdotes you won't find in tourist guides, secrets passed down through generations, and tips on breathtaking places only locals know.
Languages
I juggle Italian, English, French, and German - because the best stories deserve to be told in all languages! This way, I can share in my writings my grandmother's tales about ancient eruptions or where to find the best cannoli in the area for travelers from all over the world.
My approach
In my articles, I go beyond the classic tourist descriptions. I tell you about the authentic soul of these places, suggest the less beaten paths, the local producers I know personally, and the traditions that have shaped our community.
I don't write simple guides, but stories that speak of sustainability, authenticity, and that typical Sicilian warmth that, I hope, will inspire you to discover our territory.
If you are planning to explore Linguaglossa - Etna Nord, my articles will help you experience it like a true local (and not just a tourist!). Ready to discover, through my words, what it truly means to be children of Etna?
