About ME

Sara Terracina

I hope you share my Mission & Vision

Class of ’80. Graduated in International Relations and History from John Cabot University. Master in Interpreting and Translation in Spanish at SSML Gregorio VII.

Simultaneously with my university career I worked in the conference sector at FAO (Food and agriculture organization), and with the WFP (World food programme) of the United Nations also traveling to various Latin American countries where I had contact with local  communities.

In 2010 my son was born and I return to the traditions I learned in my family, a Roman family. I started to take care of the enhancement of Roman and Italian  history and culture in the tourism sector. After a few years working for cultural organizations and the museums of Rome, I became a licensed tourist guide and tour leader. Since then I had the opportunity of taking tourist groups to discover the beauties of the Italian territory in English, Spanish and Hebrew. I am also an accredited tourist guide for the Vatican City.
