How Can This Workshop Help Me?

Overwhelmed by planning your own trip? Tired of researching online? Want to know the best things to do away from tourists?

Our mission is to help you experience Italy's far-flung places, fading traditions, and phenomenal nature through genuine connection with locals. 

We know that planning a unique and authentic trip to a foreign country can be daunting, to say the least. You're probably wasting your weekends lost in the depths of internet forums, reading advice from other non-Italian tourists that came before you. You've spent weeks on it already and still feel like you're missing the local experiences that make a trip so memorable. Not to mention, you've read southern Italy is a foodie's paradise but have no idea what dishes to try!

Close your tabs. Pour yourself a glass of wine. We've been traveling in Southern Italy for years. We've made friends with locals who have shown us their favorite spots and we've tested the top experiences to know what is really worth your time. We know the ins and outs of planning an authentic and meaningful trip in Southern Italy and we want to share it all with you!

Why? Because we think getting off-the-beaten-path helps the world become a place that respects and protects the wisdom held within the roots of its cultures. It lessens the strain on overtouristed destinations and spreads the economic opportunity to smaller communities. It helps keep fading traditions and villages alive! And if we can help with that by sharing our favorite hidden experiences with you, well we're all in! Are you?

About Your Host

Sierra Busch, Italy Expert and Founder of Creative Edge Travel

Sierra Busch 

If there’s one thing Italy has taught me, it’s that life can be so damn good when you let yourself truly live it. From my first taste of la dolce vita in 2011, I've never stopped exploring its many regions. From the tall mountains in the north to the sunny heel of the boot in the south, I've scoured maps for Italy's hidden secrets, connecting with locals and soaking up the authentic everyday life along the way. This passion led to a career in travel in NYC, where I worked for top agencies and startups, planning luxury vacations for VIP clients. With more attention given to the size of the hotel's bathroom than what lies outside the door, I felt my values did not align and started to dream of a deeper kind of travel. Now my goal is to bring my guests meaningful travel experiences that will forever connect them to the genuine spirit of Italy that so many others miss. All while helping to keep fading traditions and villages alive!

Through the thoughtful curation of Sierra, we were immersed into the beautiful world of Italian culture and making new friends in a foreign country. We could never in a million years planned something like this on our own. Her wealth of connections to locals in Italy is truly remarkable. It seems as though everyone in Italy knows her and loves her! Sierra is a joy to work with and made the whole experience seamless. She is a true professional. Creative Edge is the hidden treasure to plan an Italian trip full of hidden treasures. We can't wait for Sierra to plan our next trip!
