I am a US-born writer and editor living in central Italy, from where I write about luxury and family travel, wellness, culture and cuisine in Italy, Europe and the Mediterranean and points further. My work has been published in HuffPost, The Telegraph, Aer Lingus's in-flight, Cara, Wander Travel & Wellness Magazine, LuxeGetaways, Citizen-Femme, Frommers.com, USA TODAY’s 10Best, and other outlets. I write the Rome content for Frommer's Travel Guides, and I am the Italy Expert for TripSavvy.com (formerly About.com Travel). I'm also a regional editor (Vaco @ Google) for Touring Bird, the new experiential travel site from Area120, Google's internal project incubator.
