Brief information about the guide Diana: I am a guide, a lover and patriot of my country. I think you can talk with every city, street, building. When that works out, it’s fun to share the stories you collect with others. Therefore, I have been working as a guide for eight years. After my tours I want people to return home in a good mood, with curiosity and infected with an even greater desire to know their country.
