Sara Prossomariti, writer and tour guide.
✨ About Me ✨
👩🎓 My name is Sara Prossomariti
📚 Raised in the pleasant and well-known Mondragone, I found refuge in books:
-
a remedy for chronic boredom
-
gateways to infinite worlds
-
each one a new adventure ready to be lived
🚀 In 2002, I moved to Naples, a city that refined:
-
my seditious and controversial spirit
-
a sharp, unmistakably Neapolitan sarcasm
-
a critical, passionate approach to history
🏛️ Academic Background
-
Three degrees in:
🏺 Archaeology
📜 Ancient History
🖼️ Art History -
A study period in Athens, where the past stops being dust and starts breathing again
✍️ Writing & Historical Storytelling
-
Essay writer for Newton Compton Publishers
-
A clear, ironic, and uncompromising voice
-
A strong belief that history should be accessible to everyone
👩🏫 specialists and non-specialists
👨👩👧👦 young and old
📖 curious readers and restless minds
🧠 My idea of history
History is:
-
fascinating
-
complex
-
full of dates and names (yes, even those 😱)
👉 but it can—and should—be told in a light, engaging, and enjoyable way
🗺️ Beyond books
Alongside writing, I also work as a tour guide, because:
-
places must be experienced
-
history must be walked
-
and the past should be explained while standing right in front of it
📢 In short
📚 I write
🏛️ I narrate
🗺️ I guide
🔥 I challenge
👉 always with one goal: to make people fall in love with history—without ever boring them
