Simon Falvo

Simon Falvo is a travel blogger, writer, and photographer who operates the "Wild About Travel" platform. With Italian roots and a Swiss upbringing, she draws on over two decades of solo and independent travel experience, which shapes her unique perspective on global exploration. After a decade-long career in investment banking and a subsequent role in a prominent PR firm, Falvo transitioned to the travel industry in 2009, driven by a deep passion for exploration and storytelling. She then established "Wild About Travel" as a space to share journeys, insights, tips, and photography, highlighting both well-known destinations and less-explored locations. Her approach emphasizes spontaneity and a deep interest in wild, isolated, and lesser-known locales, complemented by a strong appreciation for art and culture. She advocates for slow travel and long-distance hiking, often providing a local perspective, particularly on Italian destinations. Beyond her blogging, Falvo works as a digital marketing specialist, consulting for various clients, conducting workshops, and speaking at events. Her expertise includes topics such as personal branding and destination digital marketing, and she has collaborated on destination marketing campaigns with entities such as Turismo Emilia-Romagna and Visit South-Africa.
