Join the Bucharest 101 class and walking tour to really connect to the city and the local culture with the help of a local guide and teacher. In our stroll through Bucharest we will visit the main downtown sites and get to know the story and life of the city from behind the scenes.
Along with a good introduction to Bucharest’s history and culture, the interactive tour will answer your curiosity to understand how Romanians live nowadays and how they think and feel about their past and future.
In just a few hours we will make sense out of Bucharest’s rich heritage: it was called once little Paris thanks to its beautiful French-inspired architecture, then half a century of Communism has laid a mark on its urban landscape and day-to-day life, while now a its strives to become a culturally vibrant and youthful European Capital.
Visiting the Revolution Square gives us the opportunity to talk about the Communist Heritage, bloody 1989 Romanian Revolution and about the nostalgia some Romanians experience.
Hi, there! My profile as a guide might seem a bit unorthodox, but if you're looking for an authentic experience, you'll be happy to bear with me for a few more lines and find out about my background. I have a PhD in Sociology and my thesis led me to find more about the way we construct our identities in intercultural social spaces. I was very lucky to spent two years studying abroad, first in Padova, Italy, as an ERASMUS student, then in Bordeaux, France, where I did the anthropological research for my thesis. Subjects such as mobility, intercultural communication and tourism are very dear to my heart. And I am, therefore, very interested in the way cultural differences shape our experience and enrich us. In the off-season, I work at the University in research, as well as a lecturer, teaching Sociology. I speak fluently English, French and Italian, and I have a passion for Spanish, which I'm studying at the moment. I invite you to visit my country and let me aid you in discovering my home town's hidden beauty! Full profile ⋅ Leave a Review
