With so many new followers joining me, I thought now would be the perfect time to reintroduce myself. My name is Francesca Spizzirri, though most people know me as Travelista73. I am a travel journalist, TICO certified travel designer, globetrotter, and culture-hound whose passion for exploring the world has led to many extraordinary journeys. I share these experiences through evocative imagery, travel tips, hotel reviews, getaway guides, and immersive travel stories.
You can follow my journey on social media, where more than 8 million annual viewers come for their daily dose of travel inspiration. My work has been featured in Fredi, Travelweek, Italy Magazine, Vacations Magazine, Panoram Italia, Canadian Geographic Travel, Canadian Traveller, Travel Professional, Travel About, Getting On Travel, Bon Vivant, and DestinationVows.
Some refer to me as the “Italy Queen”, a title earned after living in Italy, returning yearly, and being fluent in the language. While my platforms are rich with Italian content reflecting my deep personal connection and expertise, my work extends far beyond Italy. I design tailor-made journeys for clients seeking elevated, meaningful travel experiences across the globe. Whether your interests lie in arts and culture, food and wine, history, outdoor adventure, or unwinding on a spectacular beach or all-inclusive resort, I help transform travel dreams into once-in-a-lifetime journeys.
I believe no travel dream is too big and that every destination can be brought to life with the right design and attention to detail. ✨ Contact [email protected] to curate your bespoke journey.
