WHO I AM

ERICA MASINI

I was born and raised in the charming medieval town of San Gimignano, and today I live in the heart of the Chianti countryside. With half Tuscan and half Scottish roots, my life has always been a blend of extraordinary traditions and landscapes. After ten years working in the export sales department of a design company, I made the most courageous decision of my life: to step out of my comfort zone and follow what truly inspires me.

With certifications as a Hiking Guide and Tourist Guide, I started my own business in the world of slow and sustainable tourism, dedicating myself to authentic and eco-friendly experiences. My belief? Traveling and nature are therapy! For this reason, I also pursued certifications as a Forest Bathing Guide and an Operator for Assisted Interventions with Donkeys (Pet Therapy), as I am deeply convinced that reconnecting with nature is essential for a healthy, mindful lifestyle.

The experiences I offer are an invitation to discover the true essence of Tuscany: an immersive journey through breathtaking landscapes, history, art, and local traditions. Each activity is designed to foster harmony with the environment, helping us rediscover a slower, more revitalizing pace. My work is my passion, and what I love most is sharing the beauty of these places, convinced that surrounding ourselves with wonder can truly change our lives.
