Chiara Crisci

CEO and Project Manager

My name is Chiara Crisci, I am an Italian happily settled in Gran Canaria. Even if I do love my country and I don’t loose my roots, I like to consider myself a citizen of the world.

After many travels abroad, I was looking for a new life adventure when I decided to leave Sicily (my place of origin) to move to Gran Canaria: from an island to another! In late 2016, I arrived in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria for a temporary – but without deadline – experience on the island and here I am still today: running my own business and living on this beautiful archipelago.

My education, work and life background led me to create INTERMOBEX as a personal professional project on which I focus all my energies and passions: travels, training, interculturalism, foreign languages, exchange of experiences and international connections among people coming from all over the world.

My mother tongue is Italian, of course, but thanks to a Bachelor’s Degree in Foreign Languages obtained at the University of Catania (Italy), I developed good communication and translation skills in English and German. At the university I was also studying Arabic for three years and I could strengthen my knowledge of French (learnt for five years in high school), since it is the second most spoken language in Maghreb. Last but not least, as a result of my stay in this country, today I can fluently communicate in Spanish too.

Would you say that foreign languages are one of my biggest passions? Yes, they are. I am also very passionate of travelling, both locally and abroad. For that reason, during my university studies I enjoyed the opportunity to do a Summer Study Trip in Morocco in 2006 and an International Internship in Tunisia in 2007.

While attending a Master’s Degree in International Studies at the University of Turin (Italy), I had been working for a couple of years as Project Coordinator and External Relations Officer in the field of cultural and social promotion, both in national and international environments. I was responsible for the implementation of many departmental activities related to the organization of conferences, meetings, workshops and training courses on several topics (education, diversity and multiculturalism, gender equality, active citizenship, immigration and human rights, among others).

Following the job experience as Project Coordinator, once returned to Sicily I achieved a Master’s Degree in Planning and Management of European Projects. Therefore, I am quite familiar with the main European Funding Programs and I’ve good knowledge of Project-Cycle-Management (PCM), Goal Oriented Project Planning (GOPP) and Executive Project Planning.

Furthermore, I personally participated twice in the Erasmus+ Mobility Program. Between 2008-2009, during my bachelor studies, I spent 7 months at the University of Bayreuth (Germany) as an exchange student. Later in 2013, after the master graduation, I flew to Valencia for a 4 months Erasmus Traineeship. Two of the best experiences of my life, undoubtedly!

Since I moved to Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, in 2016, I’ve been discovering the canarian archipelago, establishing important work collaborations with local companies and professionals. Following my interest for international exchanges, in 2018 I decided to start a new job adventure by creating INTERMOBEX. I wanted to provide people like me with the right support in arranging a stay abroad for training and learning scopes, but also for short travels and events to be held in the tropical setting of the Canary Islands. I am aware that the archipelago exercises a big attraction in the rest of Europe. Then, what is better than offering it as destination for an international mobility experience abroad?

I strongly believe that the Canaries can offer more than what people from outside can even imagine, both as for travelling and for learning opportunities. That’s why I decided to promote different mobility programs: I want you to find the best activity in the Canary Islands according to your needs and preferences.

Drawing on my beliefs, since I started my business I’ve been working on several mobility projects, establishing new partnerships, designing new services accordingly to the market requests and thinking on new possible mobility programs to implement. I am fully compromised with my job and I take care of any single detail, to offer you unforgettable experiences in Gran Canaria.

My main purpose is to provide you with the kind of services and the quality standards that I would expect to receive from another intermediary organisation called to arrange my own international experience abroad.

Your satisfaction is my satisfaction: it is my goal and my biggest joy.
