Profile details
About
A travel writer and culture enthusiast with a penchant for la dolce vita and a severe case of wanderlust. I'm based in Rome, Italy.
Travel style
I'm a slow traveler looking for a sense of place. I love to mix highs and lows, visit cultural sites, learn about local traditions and discover boutique hotels.
