A SNAPSHOT

Born and raised in Italy, Catia started her career in the travel industry in London. She has worked in travel for almost 20 years.

CATIA’S BIOGRAPHY

Catia grew up between the north-east of Italy and Tuscany, and she moved to London after finishing her studies. After a few years working across several industries, Catia caught the travel bug after a long backpacking stint in Australasia and Asia.

She started her career with some very well-known tour operators, specialising in adventure travel, which then took her on a family move to Canada for a few years to work within the North American market. She loves being in nature, hiking and has a passion for sustainability.

MOST MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE

It’s hard to pin down just one, but watching the sunrise at 3700m altitude while camping on the Inca trail in Peru and being surrounded only by snow-capped peaks, must be up there among the best!
