Throughout my early life, I was captivated by the philosophy of the "Slow Food Italy" association.

Their direct affront to the rapidly rising fast food industry, was introduced to me, a little boy back then, by their giant flamboyant pink plastic snails, parading through my old hometown.

​

A campaign dedicated to raise awareness of our increasingly capitalistic food industry that, although too complex for me to understand back then, has left me wondering.

​

The idea of savoring each bite, appreciating the ingredients, and understanding the journey from farm to table resonated with and inspired me to commit to a lifestyle of a young aspiring chef, in a way to better myself and explore my newfound passion.

 

As I grew older, and begun travelling throughout Italy, this lifestyle carried on with me as a need to travel with taste and passion.

​

Nothing the overly advertised and touristic side of Italy could offer me.

The conventional way of hopping from one tourist spot to another, rushing through guided tours, and ticking off checklists was hollow and meaningless, and quickly bored me.

​

I craved the aspirations that led me so far, and with the same passion I sought my way in the travel industry.

​

And little by little, from tour guide to travel agent, I decided to bring my philosophy to the world of travel.

 

That is how Boutique Voyage was born, a travel agency with a unique motto: "Slow Travel" a pledge to slowing down and smelling the roses lifestyle.

 

Since then, my mission has been to immerse myself in what I will offer, genuinely creating tours that I would love to do again and present myself to you.
