Hi, my name is Marco, and I was born and raised in Palermo, Sicily. Travelling is my oxygen and I I love eating, drinking and cooking. I have travelled all over Italy becoming an expert in all the regional cuisines and it is my passion to help visitors experience the fresh and delicious local dishes-even if some of them are unusual! I also like surfing, snowboarding, playing soccer and…rock’n’roll!
