ABOUT
Italy, through my eyes
​
Postcards from Italy is a collection of stories, places, people, traditions and little discoveries gathered from the Italy I have lived, loved and continued to return to.
​
This isn't a guidebook.
​
I'm not here to tell you where you must go or give you a list of things to tick off.
Instead, I want to invite you to slow down, look a little closer and discover some of the Italy that exists beyond the obvious.
​
The Italy of the locals.
The Italy of the everyday.
The Italy that reveals itself when you stop rushing.
Welcome To My Italy
​
Twenty-six years ago, I arrived in Italy alone, without speaking a single word of Italian.
I had no idea then just how much this country would become part of my life.
​
I fell in love with the language, the people, the food, the landscapes and, perhaps most of all, the extraordinary beauty of everyday Italian life.
​
The Italy I came to know was not always the Italy found in guidebooks.
It was the little bar where someone knew exactly how I liked my coffee. The market that became part of my weekly ritual. A conversation overheard in the street. A village I might never have discovered as a tourist. A word in dialect that had been passed down through generations. A walk through the woods. A table shared with friends.
​
It was in these small moments that Italy began to feel like home.
And that is the Italy I want to share with you.​​
​
​
Through the films, journals and collections, I'll take you with me as I explore the places and stories that have captured my imagination.
Some will be well known.
Others may be somewhere you've never heard of.
​
There will be artists and artisans, food and traditions, landscapes and language, stories from the past and discoveries from the present.
​
And always, there will be the little things.
​
Because sometimes the smallest moments become the ones we remember most.
​
Collect moments, not miles.
Welcome to Postcards from Italy.
