FollowMi Around: unlocking the authentic Milan experience, unleashing the local spirit
The main goal of FollowMi Around is to provide travelers with an authentic Milanese experience, immersing them in the local culture as if they were residents themselves. We all recognize that the most enriching way to discover a new place is by strolling through its streets with a local friend. That’s precisely why our team, comprised of young locals, has pooled their expertise and talents to transform a dream into reality: sharing the true essence of Italian culture in the most authentic manner, providing you with a travel experience that seamlessly integrates you into the local community.
Established in 2018 by an Italian entrepreneur who had lived abroad for several years, FollowMi Around was born out of a deep passion for travel and a genuine curiosity for different cultures. This led her to leave her corporate jobs behind and embark on an exciting new adventure: a career that seamlessly combines her love for exploration, fun, and professionalism.

FRANCESCO
Francesco was born in 1992 in a small town in Friuli Venezia Giulia. He totally define himself a “busy bee”!
After several years working in the field of graphic design, he finished his university and obtained a master’s degree in Architectural Sciences, at the Polytechnic of Milan.
He lived for a year in Australia, a country that he deeply love, working offline as a barista and online helping young Architecture students to pass their exams, providing them online courses!
His two greatest passions are music and travel! His love for discovering this wonderful planet continually brings me into contact with different cultures.
His passion for tourism comes from different family travel experiences, which led he to explore different cultures and destinations around the world.
This interest then turned into a profession, with the aim of sharing his knowledge and offering unique memories and experiences to travellers!

MARIA CHIARA
Born in Fano, a little town on the Adriatic coast, she comes to Milan with empty pockets and suitcases full of dreams.

Time passes by, and after 17 years spent writing scripts and headlines, she thinks it’s time to write a new chapter of her life too. She becomes tour guide and she put in her new job all the skills she learned in her life: the love for traditional food learnt from her grandmother, eight years of amateur teather, the passion of storytelling from adv, her love for art and history learnt from her parents. Shake everything with ice and irony and here is Maria Chiara.
