YourGuide Destination Consultant
Originally from California,
Felice recently relocated to New York from Europe to work as Going-there's Operations and Development Manager. In that role, she oversees the YourGuide service in New York and the rest of the Americas, managing the seasoned YourGuide Consultants who help assignees find their feet in their new cities.
A true internationalist, Felice moved to Eastern Europe after graduating with a degree in History and Russian studies from Princeton University. She lived and worked in Moscow for two years and in Prague, Czech Republic, for three. While in Prague, Felice worked as Going-there's International YourGuide Coordinator, developing the YourGuide service and building our teams of wired-in expatriate consultants all over Europe.
New York is another international adventure for Felice. "Having lived abroad for all of my working life, returning to the US, and New York in particular, I felt somewhat like a foreigner," she says. "Rental practices here are peculiar and I was at square one with common goods and services, like mobile phone, home phone and Internet providers... I remember talking to customer service people and saying, 'I know I have an American accent, but I just moved to the country, so can you explain from the beginning...'"
Happily settled, Felice loves New York and is excited to help newcomers discover the wonders of this city.
