Europe Trip Leader

Sergio Mastroberardino

Languages Spoken: English, Italian & French

Sergio was born in the hills of wine country east of Naples, Italy, where his ancestors were pioneers in the area's wine development. After studying law, his passion for the outdoor life led him to become a ski instructor and he taught at resorts in France, the UK, and the US. In summers, he guides our hiking journeys and is a warm and energetic trail companion as well as a font of information on Italy's cuisine, history, and traditions. During his time off, he enjoys mountain biking and sea kayaking and has run a few ultra-marathons. On a more contemplative note, Sergio enjoys reading about different cultures, about jazz, of which he is an avid listener, and about the roots of folk music and folk dances. Besides his native Italian, he is fluent in English and French.
