Tiziana was born in Lombardy, grew up in Milano and received two degrees at the Università di Milano, in Art History and Foreign Languages and Literature. She had always felt a great passion for the theatre so decided to go to Drama school and became an actress shortly afterwards. After a few years pursuing her acting career, she started to travel extensively and intensively from continent to continent fascinated by the different cultures. Back to her roots in Italy, she rediscovered the treasures and the mystery of her home territory and remains in total agreement with Proust “the true voyage of discovery is not so much in seeking new landscapes as in having new eyes." She enjoys offering new eyes to visitors to Milan.
