Over the past 20 years I've been travelling the world and developing an intimate knowledge of the vacation rentals business.

Long before Airbnb was a Silicon Valley startup, I was running my own version of Airbnb as a lifestyle business.

These last three years I have been an Airbnb host and property manager in my native Italy. I set up my own company to do this - Adormo (in Italian this word sounds like a good night's sleep!).

On my host-training site, I've been teaching Italian Airbnb hosts how to manage and optimize their properties for some time now.

Udemy is my chance to take my experience to a wider audience.

Besides my work as a host and my teaching, I am hard at work developing the next big thing in the vacation rentals space - a decentralised booking platform called TRIPS.   

I split my time between Italy, Bulgaria and Thailand.
