It’s so nice of you to visit my blog today. If you love Italy and all things Italian, we have a lot in common.
• I sold my boutique advertising agency in Centerport, Long Island last year and I’m now focusing on this life-long conversation about traveling the world, Tuscany and the rest of Italy. I studied in Rome during my Junior Year Abroad at the Tyler School of Art, which made me part Italian from my 20th year on. My background in Fine Art, Art Education and Art History are fuel for my fire. I work in Visitor Services at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York so I can immerse in art every week.
• What form does your obsession take? What are your favorite things about Italian culture, art, history, language, wine and cuisine? We could go on forever, couldn't we?
