Mimi Todhunter
Born in New Zealand, Mimi has lived in the United Kingdom and Italy for most of her life. She is a renown hostess, has impeccable taste for the finer things in life and loves to share her passions with friends, both old and new.
When she and her husband Jonny moved to Venice over twenty years ago, she vowed to integrate herself into the city, discovering artisans and historical sites in its labyrinth of passages. Along the way, she’s befriended craftsmen, historians, conservators, and Venetians who have given her a unique understanding of the city and the people who work in it, care for its heritage, and bring its history alive.
Mimi’s knowledge of the city coupled with her connections to art historians, conservators, artisans, shopkeepers, and socialites contribute to her knowledge of the real Venice. Step into Mimi’s Magical World and enter doors that are closed to most tourists to savour the best that Venice has to offer.
