Hi, I’m Judith,
Creator and Founder of Magical Places
I believe life is full of beauty and color and potential.
Work hard, dream big, enjoy, be adventurous, take a little risk once in a while, and
most importantly - live NOW!
That’s the very reason why I love and breathe hospitality.
This is where life happens.
This is where amazing things take place.
What inspired me to launch Magical Places?
I think these two life events had the biggest impact:
In 1996, I worked for Cirque du Soleil. Canadian founder Guy Laliberté, a college drop-out turned billionaire, had the amazing capability to combine art and finances and made Cirque du Soleil a huge success. I was fascinated by his approach and soaked up every lesson, I could learn during my time with them.
In 2003, I purchased with my then-husband Villa Cartoceto in the Italian region Marche. The villa is in the middle of the historic center of Cartoceto. We opened a Bed & Breakfast and made the entire local community part of our guest experience. Our guests were mesmerized, and we had a fabulous time running it.
These 9 years and my time with Cirque du Soleil were great sources of inspiration and they finally led me to Magical Places.
Why working with me?
When considering partnering with me for your hospitality business, you're tapping into a unique strength: my ability to perceive the fundamental structure of your business an how its various components interact seamlessly, much like a symphony orchestra performing in perfect harmony.
This innate talent allows me to bring focus and consistency to your operations, avoiding unnecessary resource wastage while giving your marketing efforts substance and coherence.
By leveraging this skill, I can help establish your business as a robust and powerful organization, built on a solid foundation for sustained success, and
bringing your business to a new level of succes !
It all begins with a new story ..
To take the next step:
Let's bring your vision to life!
Experience tells us

together
anything can happen.
Some might call it luck.
I call it MAGIC!
