Europe Trip Leader

Magali Calcagno

Languages Spoken: English, French & Italian

Magali was raised near Mercantour National Park on the French-Italian border. Growing up, she often spent time on her grandparents' farm, where she developed a deep love for nature. She earned a bachelor's degree in Foreign Languages and is also certified as a Guide Conférencier (certified specialist guide in art and history), which allows her to guide in all of France's historic monuments (and lets our groups skip the line!). Magali says leading trips confirms her passion for communicating, sharing experiences, and promoting cultures. When not guiding, she enjoys painting, birding, and mountain biking.
