Iced tea and lemon granita is my favorite way to cool down in Rome in the summer. #dailyroutine #dailywalkwithme #dailyroutine

Did you know that true Fettuccine Alfredo was invented in Rome? For real. It’s changed beyond recognition these days in the States, but the original is a thing of beauty. #theitaliantable #foodtour #pastarecipe #romerestaurants

I’m not usually in the habit of saying I have a favorite place, food or season but I might make an exception for freshly pressed olive oil in the fall in Tuscany.

Why wait in a long line to buy a panino with all the other tourists when you could go where the locals go? Follow me. #foodtour #rometoursim #lifeinitaly

Next time you’re in Rome stop by a flea market for something unique and sustainable to bring home. #vintage #rome #lifeinitaly

Is it delicious? Not sure yet. Is it good for me? Maybe. #umbriaitaly #foodandculture

A pretty typical Sunday in Rome: a visit to the farmers market, lunch & dinner with family and lots of walks. #lifeinitaly #dailylife #romeistas

What’s your favorite mug look like?

I always try to take Sundays off. I think it’s important to step away from work and spend time with friends and family. Also it’s the day I definitely say yes to pasta and pastries 😍 #lifeinitaly #umbriaitaly #dailylife @Il Ghiottone Umbro

I love Saturdays since it’s the day the porchetta truck rolls into town. #lifeinitaly #foodandculture #umbriaitaly
