Heading up My Destination Sicily - Hedvika Pavelcova and Tony Guastella

Your Sicily Local Expert:

Tony was born in London to a Sicilian father and Irish mother, and it is from here where he inherited his strong passion for Sicily. Spending every single summer of his life there, has sewed the seeds of his love for this amazing Island with its splendid beaches, great food, spectacular horizons, and rich history.

After finishing university with a Masters degree in Economics, Tony started working in a bank, but a year later realised this was not what he wanted to do. So he left banking and found a job with a small travel agency and from then on he knew that Travel and Tourism was his “home”. Having worked in the travel industry for 15 years now, Tony has worked successfully for a number travel organisations. However he always dreamed that one day he could do something linked to Sicily and MyDestination.com was exactly what he was looking for.

Hedvika hails from the Czech Republic where she lived until the age of 19 studying, travelling and enjoying life! Aged 20 she headed to Germany where she lived for a year before heading back to the Czech Republic. However, she wasn’t going to stay around for long as she landed a job for Japanese Airlines in London. After a couple of years she switched jobs and met (her future husband) Tony. Both Hedvika and Tony share a love for travel, languages and their beautiful children. Hedvika loves being part of the MyDestination.com team and is looking forward to sharing her passion with you.
