The experience that inspired the creation of Home to Home

Having relocated from Brazil, Mariana has been living in the UK for the past 23 years. She has experienced first-hand several moves around the UK, renting and buying in London as well as other parts of England, and has gained in-depth knowledge of London's property market. Her passion for real state and interior design give her the perfect skills to find and create great family homes.  

Now, having become a mother of two here in the UK, in addition to having worked for 15  years for the local government, she has also gained significant expertise of the educational system, public services, and many other aspects of adapting to the British way of living.

Mariana has helped many friends along the years to find the most suitable area in London and to settle into their new British lives, gaining not only practical but also cultural knowledge of the local life style - and this was the inspiration that led to the creation of Home to Home.

A love for British culture and all the exceptional entertainment London has to offer has also been the catalyst to the expansion of Home to Home with the creation of the 'Short Stay Services', which offers support to anyone travelling to London for holidays, studying or even a sabatical. Mariana is happy to help in any way to make your long or short term stay in London the most memorable time.
